One You Need
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm not sayin' you don't love me cause I know you do
But I have said enough to know you play some too
You tear me all to pieces then you asked me not to bleed
I'm the woman that you want but I'm not the one you need
The woman that you need is good for any ol' good time
And the woman that you want you wouldn't want if she's that kind
It hurts when you go sowin' wasted love from your wild seed
I'm the woman that you want but I'm not the one you need
[ guitar - steel ]
The woman that you need...
