                            Piece of My Heart

                                                              Janis Joplin

F#m A2 B2  C#m B2 D2 B2
      B2
  Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on!

     E2                A2 B2
     Didn't I make you feel
          A2           E2     A2 B2 A2
     Like you were the only man  -  yeah!
     E2                       A2                               B2
     Didn't I give you nearly everything that a woman possibly can?
       - honey, you know I did!

         C#m
           And each time I tell myself
                  B2
           That I, well I think I've had enough
               D2
           But I'm gonna show you, baby
                  B2
           That a woman can be tough

                                B2
                  I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on

                            E2
                        And take it - take it!
                              A2                        B2
                        Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!
                        A2      E2
                        Oh, oh, break it!
                               A2                      B2
                        Break another little bit of my heart now
                          darling, yeah, yeah, yeah

                        Oh, oh, have a!
                        Have another little piece of my heart now, baby

                      B2 Bb2 A2
                              You know you got it
                                    A     G#  F#   E
                              If it makes you feel good - oh, yes indeed
                                                               E2 A2 B2 A2

     You're out on the streets looking good
     And baby deep down in your heart
       I guess you know that it ain't right
     Never, never, never, never, never,
       never hear me when I cry at night - babe, I cry all the time!

           And each time I tell myself
           That I, well I can't stand the pain
           But when you hold me in your arms
           I'll sing it once again

                  I'll say come on, come on, come on, come on

                        And take it! - take it!
                        Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!
                        Oh, oh, break it!
                        Break another little bit of my heart now,
                          darling, yeah

                        Oh, oh, have a!
                        Have another little piece of my heart now, baby

                              You know you got it, child
                              If it makes you feel good

                  I need you to come on, come on
                  Come on, come on

                        And take it! - take it!
                        Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!
                        Oh, oh, break it!
                        Break another little bit of my heart now,
                          darling, yeah, c'mon now

                        Oh, oh, have a!
                        Have another little piece of my heart now, baby

                              You know you got it - whoahhhhh!!

                        Take it! - take it!
                        Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!
                        Oh, oh, break it!
                        Break another little bit of my heart now,
                          darling, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

                        Oh, oh, have a!
                        Have another little piece of my heart now, baby

                              Hey, you know you got it, child
                              If it makes you feel good...
