A
The way that you looked at him,
D E
And then you looked at me,
A
You must think that I'm proper blind,
D E
Proper blind not to see.
A
That I was just a stopgap
D E
Sitting somewhere in between his hand and his lap,
A D E
Let me tell you that I wasn't born yesterday my dear.
A
That kiss, it lasted too long,
D E
And we probably shouldn't have danced to that song,
A
It was nothing, it was everything,
D
Its really such a shame,
E
Its so hard to explain to you.
(go on with the same chord progression for verse & refrain)
He's back in town tonight,
He's expecting you round at quarter to nine,
But you won't be there,
Because he bores the proverbials off you.
If he only knew what you thought,
The lust, the lack of trust, the temptation you fought,
He's worthless, .....???....
He's just a passing fashion and he's on his way out.
That kiss, it lasted too long,
And we probably shouldn't have danced to that song,
It meant nothing,
It meant everything,
Its really such a shame,
Its so hard to explain to you.

I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it,

I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it,

I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it,

I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it,
E
I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it.
That kiss, it lasted too long,
And we probably shouldn't have danced to that song,
It meant nothing,
It meant absolutely everything,
Its really such a shame,
Its so hard to explain to you.
La la la la
That kiss, that girl, that place you go,
Where is she now you don't even know?
...sounds about right to me...
