^{Key: :[F#] (w: Mark Knopfler)}

INTRO: [F#]

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

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

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

INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE x2]

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

OUTRO: [C#] [F#] : [x3]
