Misc Originals - Don stone - out on a limb

^C7I went out on a limb, trusting you for your love. I saw the Stars shining, thought I’d found heaven above. But you ^F7kept your cards hidden, played ‘em close to your chest. No^C7w I’m hanging out here wondering, was your love just a test?

Why d^G7idn’t you tell me? - all those things? B^F7efore I fell so hard, before I let my feelings ^C7show. Now^G7 I’m out on a limb, and the branch is bending thin, Why ^F7didn’t you tell me, baby, before this trouble set^C7 in?

^C7You had a past that you buried, secrets locked up so tight, I was blind to the warning, lost in the thrill of the night. Wel^F7l I gave you my heart wide open, I thought you felt the flame, B^C7ut now I’m out here dangling, with smoke cloudin’ my name.

The wind is h^Amowlin’, the ground looks far ^Gaw^Gsus4ay, I’m ho^F7lding on to nothin’, and you chose to ^E7betray. But I ain’t a ^Amfool, I’ll climb back down s^Gom^Gsus4ehow, F7 E7 F7 F#7 G7 to chorus I’ve learned my lesson, darlin’, I can see that now.

Why d^G7idn’t you tell me? - all those things? B^F7efore I fell so hard, before I let my feelings ^C7show. Now^G7 I’m out on a limb, and the branch is bending thin, Why ^F7didn’t you tell me, baby, before this trouble set^C7 in?

^C7I was out on a limb, but I won’t do it again. Next time I’ll stay on the ground. ^F7I’ll watch for those signs of deceit and let them sink in deep. Why ^C7didn’t you tell me, baby? Why didn’t you let me in? Cause I was out on a ^G7limb; you wouldn’t let me in. You^F7 were just waiting for me to come crashin^C7’ down. Out on a limb, come crashing down.
