I Was Only Telling A Lie
James Taylor
Bm7(b9) = 0 2 x 2 3 0 [Verse 1] Got the one room suite in the downtown motel Got a lovely view Classic shot of the parking lot An off ramp of route 72 Half flat six pack of lukewarm beer So lay down by my side Like to whisper sweet nothings in my filthy ear [Verse 2] Until I’m satisfied Am(add11) Baby-bootie C6sus2 Juicy-fruity Truck-stop cutie Roadside-beauty [Chorus] Asus I’m in love with you Hope it don’t last too long You got the mackerel eyes Brought the side of fries You got me hypnotized I’m in love again Now baby when I told you that I love you I was only telling a lie I’ll be long gone come the crack of dawn And I believe the word is good-bye bye baby bye bye Bye bye bye bye bye bye I was only telling a lie There ain’t no need to act like I shot your dog no I was only telling a lie [Outro]
