Song: Under My Thumb
By:   The Rolling Stones

[intro:] 2 x [ F#m E D D ]

[verse: 1]
           F#m
Under my thumb
      E       D    
The girl who once had me down
           F#m
Under my thumb
     E              D
The girl who once pushed me around

[chorus:]
             A
It's down to me
       D                 B
The difference in the clothes she wears
             F#m                 E
It's down to me  the change has come
       D         A
She's under my thumb     ain't it the truth babe

[verse: 2]
          F#m
Under my thumb
      E              D
A squirming dog who just had her day
          F#m
Under my thumb
   E                   D
A girl who has just changed her ways

[chorus:]
             A
It's down to me,   yes it is
    D                  B
The way she does just what she's told
        F#m                 E
Down to me  the change has come
       D         A
She's under my thumb     it's all right
 
[verse: 3]
          F#m
Under my thumb
      E       D  
A siamese cat of a girl
          F#m
Under my thumb 
       E            D  
She's the sweetest pet in the world

[chorus:]
             A
It's down to me
     D                  B
The way she talks when she's spoken to
        F#m                 E
Down to me  the change has come
       D         A
She's under my thumb    take it easy babe

[instrumental:] {over verse chords} 2 x [ F#m  E  D  D ]

[chorus:]
             A
It's down to me
     D                  B
The way she talks when she's spoken to
        F#m                 E
Down to me  the change has come
       D         A
She's under my thumb    it's all right

[verse: 4]
          F#m
Under my thumb
     E             D
Her eyes are just kept to herself
          F#m
Under my thumb
         E                  D
Well, I can still look at someone else
   
[chorus:]
             A
It's down to me
     D                  B
The way she talks when she's spoken to
        F#m                 E
Down to me  the change has come
       D         A
She's under my thumb  

[coda:]   A
       Say it's all right  
       Say it's all right
