Title:			WHIPPIN' POST			(Gregg Allman)



		Am   Am(on 2nd fret)   A(on 5th fret)   Am(on 2nd fret) Am 


		I've been run down,  and I've been lied to,

		And I don't know why I let that mean woman make me a fool.

		She took all my money,  wrecked my new car,

		Now she's with one of my good time buddies 

		Drinkin in some cross town bar



		Bm7          D7                   E7                    
	CHORUS:	Sometimes I feel,    sometimes I feel,   
	  |	               A	   D        C
	  |	Like I've been tied to the whippin' post
	  |	A           D        C
	  |	Tied to the whippin' post, 
	  |	A           D        C
	  |	Tied to the whippin' post,
	  |	C    Tacet
	  -	Good lord I feel like I'm dying.




		My friends tell me   that I've been such a fool,

		And I have to stand by and take if, baby, all for loving you.

		Drown myself in sorrow  and I look at what you've done,

		But nothing seems to change, the bad times stay the same 

		And I can't go on
