Back Door Slam: Gotta Leave


I just heard this cut on Pandora's Blues Channel from the short-lived UK group Back Door Slam (the group broke up in 2009). The sound of  Davy Knowles' guitar caught my ear (you can hear a little better version of "Gotta Leave" here).  Here are the lyrics from Lyric Wiki and a quick guess at the changes:

Ask me no questions, when I try to tell you
My best intentions, were always with you
And don't raise your voice, just try to understand
Save your loving, for some other man

Oh, you must have gotten me confused, with some other man
Who will lay you down, on the line for you
Tell me how, can I trust you, when you can't trust yourself
I've gotta leave you baby, find myself, somebody else
Ooooooh...

Thought we were over it, hmmm, thought we'd passed the worst
It was so always hard to tell, if it were a blessing or a curse
Sometimes it was so sweet, in between a lying
Every time we spent laughing, there was two times I spent crying

Oh, you must have gotten me confused, with some other man
Who will lay you down, on the line for you
Tell me how, can I trust you, when you can't trust yourself
I've gotta leave you baby, find myself, somebody else
Ooooooh...

Can't keep hiding...
No no you can't keep lying...

Oh, you must have gotten me confused, with some other man
Who will lay you down, on the line for you
Tell me how, can I trust you, when you can't trust yourself
I've gotta leave you baby, find myself, somebody else
Ooooooh...

To the changes:

Bm7, D7, A7, Em7, F#m7, Bm7
(bridge)Em7, Bm7, Em7, F major7
