Feel No Shame

Tell the story! G Once I knew a love so true G D Every inch an artist D An eye for detail, without equal D G And a face for trusting G A country girl who knew the world G D But who's judgment was too reckless D And when in turn she showed concern D G She wore it like a necklace C G So come on now, have yourself a good time C G Go out and share the blame C G Do what you should but if it makes you feel good F C G I hope you feel no shame G She could not see that sympathy G D Was no recompense D A gift belated, motivated D By a guilty conscience G A hand that steals and a hand that heals G D The Anglo-Saxon attitude D The hand that feeds the hand that needs D G Can expect no gratitude C G So come on now, have yourself a good time C G Go out and share the blame C G Do what you should but if it makes you feel good F C G I hope you feel no shame G Oh, what I'd give once more to live G D In childhood innocence D The things men do with words so true D D Would seem much more like common sense G An empire built on civilized guilt G D Yet the homeland still is the stranger D To my friends who make amends D G But in tryin' see no danger C G So come on now, have yourself a good time C G Go out and share the blame C G Do what you should but if it makes you feel good F C G I hope you feel no shame F C G I hope you feel no shame F C G I hope you feel no shame
