[Intro]
G#m7 C#m7       F#               B           G#m7
 My  fine faded friend with your cute little pranks
C#m7    F#        B        G#m7
I would like to express my thanks
  C#m7    F#    B     G#m7
I trusted you implicitly
    C#            C#7          C#m7         F#
But what a double-crosser you turned out to be
 
[Verse 1]
B
 Stupid Cupid, you're a real mean guy
B                                B7
 I'd like to clip your wings, so you can't fly
E
 I'm in love, and it's a cryin' shame
B
 and I know that you're the one to blame
F#         E
 Hey, hey, set me free
B                   F#         B
 Stupid Cupid, stop pickin' on me
 
[Verse 2]
  B
I can't do my homework and I can't think straight
  B                              B7
I meet her every mornin' 'bout a half past eight
E
 Well, I'm actin' like a lovesick fool
    B
you even got me carryin' her books to school
F#         E
 Hey, hey, set me free
B                   F#         B
 Stupid Cupid, stop pickin' on me
 
[Chorus]
E                                B
 You messed me up for good right from the very start
E                                  C#              F#
 Hey, now, go play Robin Hood with somebody else's heart
 
[Verse 3]
B
 You've got me jumpin' like a crazy clown
B                               B7
 And I don't feature what you're puttin' down
E
 Well, since I kissed her lovin' lips of wine
    B
The thing that bothers me is, I like it fine
F#         E
 Hey, hey, set me free
B                   F#         B
 Stupid Cupid, stop pickin' on me

 You've got me jumpin' like a crazy clown

E
 Hey, since I kissed her lovin' lips of wine

The thing that bothers me is, I like it fine
