Well, your friends with their fancy persuasion

        Ab/Bb                   Bb
don't admit that it's part of a scheme,

      Ab/Bb                     Bb
but I can't help but have my suspicion

         Ab/Bb                    Bb
'cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem.

        Ab/Bb                Bb
And you said you was never intendin'

   Ab/Bb                      Bb
to break up our scene in this way,

          Ab/Bb               Bb
but there ain't any use in pretendin'

         Ab/Bb            Bb  Bm7
it could happen to us any day.
