I saw you last night out on the edge of town

I wanna read your mind to know just what I've got
D D Dsus D
in this new thing I've found
Em G C G Em G C G
So tell me What I see when I look in your eyes
Em-G- C D G G9 C9 G G9 C9 G
Is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise
G G9 C9 G G G9 C9 G
I heard somebody call your name from underneath our willow
G G9 C9 G D D Dsus D
I saw something tucked in shame underneath your pillow
G G9 C9 G G G9 C9 G
Well I've tried so hard baby but I just can't see
