The Best Kiss - Elliott Murphy
-------------------------------
Capo: IV
[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Am
Church chimes ringing just next store
Dm Am
I was looking for something more
Am
Bells tolling for a broken heart
Dm Am
I must love just to fall apart
Am
That afternoon everything was all right
Dm Am
World was burning up disease and fright
Am
Sitting around lazy a spoon
E Am
And I was waiting for you and the next full moon
[Chorus]
F E
The best kiss I never want to miss
F E Am
Came from your lying lips spite of this
[Verse 2]
Am
But you know I was long past that
Dm Am
Keeping cool in my panama hat
Am
Lost weekends in the distant sublime
Dm Am
Take my vacation, sunset lavender time
Am
Just one trick and I do it out of habit
Dm Am
Back to the hotel fast as rabbits
Am
I smell the perfume on her tender slim wrist
Am E Am
And I keep telling myself it don’t get better than this
[Chorus]
F E
The best kiss I never want to miss
F E Am
Came from your lying lips spite of this
[Bridge]
Bb E Am
Everybody knows where the conscience goes
Bb E Am
Everybody shows, that where the evil grows
[Verse 3]
Am
Kids upstairs asleep as a mouse
Dm Am
My own worries are too big for this house
Am
Newspapers try to tell me what matters
Dm Am
I’m telling you they’re all as crazy as Manhatters
Am
I remember the shine of her bottom lip
Dm Am
And the kind of smile that could launch a thousand ships
Am
Sit around nursing my wet memory
E Am
Or I could walk upstairs where she’d be waiting for me
[Chorus]
F E
The best kiss I never want to miss
F E Am
Came from your lying lips spite of this
F E
The best kiss I never want to miss
F E Am
Came from your lying lips spite of this
