You Can't Do That Lennon/McCartney

I got something to say that might cause you pain,

If I catch you talking to that boy again,

I'm gonna let you down, and leave you flat.

Because I told you befo--ore you can't do that.

Well it's the second time I caught you talking to him,

Do I have to tell you one more time I think it's a sin.

I think I'll let you down, and leave you flat.

Because I told you befo--ore you can't do that.

Everybody's gree--een, 'cause I'm the one who won your love,

But if they'd see--een, you talking that way, they'd laugh in my face.

So please listen to me if you wanna stay mine,

I can't help my feelings I go out of my mind,

I'm gonna let you down, and leave you flat.

Because I told you befo--ore you can't do that.

(Instrumental same as verse)

Everybody's gree--een, 'cause I'm the one who won your love,

But if they'd see--een, you talking that way, they'd laugh in my face.

So please listen to me if you wanna stay mine,

I can't help my feelings I go out of my mind,

I'm gonna let you down, and leave you flat.

Because I told you befo--ore you can't do that.

Acknowledgement: This song was originally transcribed in 1993 by Jim Campobello ([email protected]). I downloaded Jim's version and transposed into the key of G used on the Anthology album. I also added some bluesy 11ths and 9ths which give the Beatles that bluesy rock sound. The Beatles also played this in F# in the opening segment of the movie A Hard Day's Night. A great song that I have just rediscovered. Enjoy!
