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

INTRO: [E]

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

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

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

INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE x2]

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

REPEAT CHORUS:
