1. You've never cheated, you've never lied,

                  G              F                 C                   G

    you've never had feelin's that you've had to hide

           Am                                 F                                    D     - D7

    for she's got you thinkin' of somethin' so different tonight.

           G                F                C                        G

    It's too late to worry what's right or what's wrong,

                         G              F         C           G

    and you're a little too crazy to leave it alone,

                         Am                                     F                              D    - D7

    when you're lookin' at somethin' that's too good to push it aside.

 

            G                  Am               C

Boy, she's got your head in the clouds

                  D             G    - F - C - D

and your heart in a bind.

   G                        Am             C

How come you're feelin' so proud

                   D                  G      - F - C - D

when your love's on the line ?

 

+  instrumental = CHORUS

 

             G                    F                     C               G

2. You still think your first love's the best in your life

                         G                       F                    C                    G

    when you know you should hurry, but you can't say goodbye.

                     Am

    And you  know you can't go back and

      F                                          D     - D7

    feel like you're where you belong.

                         G                  F              C                G

    Now, the sweet taste of freedom is hard to control

                     G                F               C             G

    when the touch of a woman's so tender to hold,

             Am                             F                                              D    - D7

    she won't even let you remember how long you've been gone.

 

          G                      Am               C

Boy, you’ve got your head in the clouds

                  D             G    - F - C - D

and your heart in a bind.

   G                        Am             C

How come you're feelin' so proud

                   D                  G      - F - C - D

when your love's on the line ?

+  instrumental = CHORUS (2x) …
