Dire Straits, Setting Me Up (1978)
^{Key: :[D] (w: Mark Knopfler)}

INTRO: [D]

VERSE 1:
[D] You say I'm the greatest, bound for glory
Well the word is out and I learned ^[A] ^[G]
[D] I got the latest side of the story
You're [C] pulling out [G] before you get [D] burned

VERSE 2:
[D] Well your hands are squeezing me, down to the bone
I never saw you breaking no law ^[A] ^[G]
[D] Stands to reason I've got to leave you alone
[C] What you [G] take me [D] for

CHORUS:
Cos [D] you're setting me up, to put me [G] down
You're just [A] making me out, to be your [D] clown [D]
You're just [D] setting me up, to put me [G] down
You better [A] give it up, yeah give it up, quit your messing a-[D]-round

INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE x2]

VERSE 3:
[D] You think I care about your reaction
You think I don't understand ^[A] ^[G]
[D] All you wanted was a piece of the action
Now you [C] talk about an-[G]-other [D] man

REPEAT CHORUS:

OUTRO: [A] [D] : [x3]
