I tell tales tall as cliffs
you've got a lisp
kid those things are hard to miss
and when you're drunk
you just make love
honey please,
like you've got somewhere to be
[and then play quietly]
but i can't bare to hear
the things about last year
i've been up all night, up all night
[then he decides to throw another chord in the mix (Amb)]
it then goes like this:

Eb|----3--3----3-3-3----3--3--2--2--0--0----0-0-0-----------------------------|
and then back to the original pattern.
you came well equipped
with a gun on your hip
and some poison on your lips
but when we wake up
in a make-up
we'll be clean
cuz we aint got nowhere to be
[and then play quiet again and play it with the extra chord thrown in there (Amb)]
and i can't talk to you
the way i've wanted to
i've been tellin lies
but i'll tell you the truth
[and then play loud again, but just the chords and cutting out this guy:
eb--3--
Bb--3--
Gb--0--
Db--0--
Ab--2--
Eb--2--
Darling i'm tired and i should be leavin, leavin
you know i'm tired, i should be leavin, leavin tonight
and so on and so on. i think you can figure the rest out from here.
its pretty simple, the same stuff over and over till the end.
peace.
