Put Yourself In My Place

...PUT YOURSELF IN MY PLACE... by The Isley Brothers

*Released 1969*

Intro:

Chorus 1:

Put yourself in my place, if only for a day.

See if you can stand the awful hurt I feel in-side.

Put yourself in my place, just a little while.

Live through the loneliness, the endless emptiness I go through.

Verse 1:

And when you lose a little sleep at night,

'Cos you ain't been treated right.

Then you know heartaches are sad.

Sitting by the telephone, being left all alone,

Then you know why I'm feeling bad.

Interlude:

C D E Am, Dm G7, C, Bb G

Put yourself in my place.

Verse 2:

And when you're just about to go insane,

'Cos it hurts to love in vain.

Ask a guy who's been in love.

I believed your evil line; now I'm left alone and crying.

Alone to count the stars above.

Chorus 2:

Put yourself in my place,

Why don't you try it, come on and try it...

Come on and try it, baby, baby, try it.

Chorus 3:

Put yourself in my place,

Come on and try it, come on and try it...

Come on and try it, baby, baby, try it.
