Verse 1: You can take the house and everything in it
Keep the diamond ring 'cause that's how I meant it

Sticks and stones are all they ever were to me
This material life with all it's value
Don't mean a thing to me without you
C D
The love that we once had is all I need
Am D
So take everything we have if it makes ya happy
Am F D
But darlin' let me say before I leave

Chorus: These sticks and stones
Am
Ain't all that makes a home
C D
They don't have arms to hold you
G
When love goes wrong
C B Am
Now you say that we are through
C Am
These sticks and stones may break me
C D G
But the words you said just tore my heart in two
8 Measure Break: G C G
Verse 2: Remember when we didn't have a dime between us
You took my hand and said we don't need much
Just as long as we're together we would be fine
Now we've acquired
All I thought would please you
I gave everything you know that I could
And still you're tellin' me you're not satisfied
So take everything we have if it makes ya happy
But darlin' let me say before I leave
Chorus:
End: These sticks and stones may break me
But the words you said just tore my heart in two
