Em
(Verse)
                        Em
Well you walked out the door just like a thief in the night
            D                 B             Em
I guess you never even had the balls to say goodbye
             Em
You stole my heart and you took all the cash
                  D            B                      Em
You split with my soul and my stereo, left me with the trash

(BRIDGE)
C                    G                  B                    Em
I never been nobody's Valentine and you never were a bride to be
C                        G                      B
I don't need you to be a friend of mine, I don't need no charity

(Chorus)
Em                      D 
Don't' come knockin' on my back door
A                       D
Love ain't livin' 'round here no more
Em              D              B
I don't want to taste your empathy
                Em
I don't want no sympathy
D                 A         D
I don't need your sympathy, baby
             Em
Don't want no sympathy
D                 A         D   Em
I don't need your sympathy, baby

(VERSE)
                    Em
I bet your out on the streets, wrapped up in somebody's arms
           D               B                            Em
Until it's time to pay the rent - you'll be gone, gone, gone
                  Em
You got a suicide heart, you send it COD
                   D                            B                           Em
Honey, I know your act, when you're sending it back don't come bitchin' to me

(BRIDGE)
C                       G              B                Em
Who said love is just a sacrifice was a man in need of sympathy
C                              G                B
It sure don't take too long to realize that you ain't getting none from me

(Chorus)
Em                      D 
Don't' come knockin' on my back door
A                       D
Love ain't livin' 'round here no more
Em              D              B
I don't want to taste your empathy
                Em
I don't want no sympathy
D                 A         D
I don't need your sympathy, baby
             Em
Don't want no sympathy
D                 A         D   
I don't need your sympathy, baby

(BRIDGE)
C                  G           B                           Em
When I look back in time I see love ain't been no friend to me
C                     G                 B
I never been nobody's Valentine and you never were a bride to be

(Chorus)
Em                     D
Don't come knockin' on my back door
A                        D
Love ain't livin' 'round here no more
Em               D                      B
Count up all the tears you've cried for me
Em                     D
Don't come knockin' on my back door
A                        D
Love ain't livin' round here no more
Em             D         B
I don't wanna taste your charity
                Em
I don't want no sympathy
D               A         D
I don't need no sympathy, baby
              Em
Don't want no sympathy
D                 A         D
I don't need your sympathy, baby
           Em
I want no sympathy
D               A       D       
I don't need no sympathy
                Em
I don't like no sympathy
D                  A                              D                   Em  D  A  D
I won't hear your sympathy, sympathy, sympathy, sympathy, not for me…
