I Wrote The Book(Cavaco chords)

	        
Well, I (A) don't know who wrote the book of love 
But, let me tell ya a little 'bout (D) heartache 
She's a (E) high-hipped ruby-lipped  
Hourglass, talkin' fast 
(D) Man-eatin', rattle(E)snake 
(A) Sweeter than honey, but I'll bet ya money 
She'll find a way to make you (D) break 
So (E) don't bother askin' me about love 
Cause, I wrote the book on (A) heartache 
 
(A) Thought I was Cassanova 
Just like Jessie (D) James 
I'd (E) take 'em to my hideout 
(D) Love 'em like a runaway train 
I was a (A) master of persuasion 
She had a PH(D)D 
I got a (E) backseat education 
And, a bachelor's de(A)gree 
 
Well, I (A) don't know who wrote the book of love 
But, let me tell ya a little 'bout (D) heartache 
She's a (E) high-hipped ruby-lipped  
Hourglass, talkin' fast 
(D) Man-eatin', rattle(E)snake 
(A) Sweeter than honey, but I'll bet ya money 
She'll find a way to make you (D) break 
So (E) don't bother askin' me about love 
Cause, I wrote the book on (A) heartache 
 
I'll pay the (D) highest price 
Buy advice, to the oldest story ever (E) told 
 
Solo 
 
Well, I (A) don't know who wrote the book of love 
But, let me tell ya a little 'bout (D) heartache 
She's a (E) high-hipped ruby-lipped  
Hourglass, talkin' fast 
(D) Man-eatin', rattle(E)snake 
(A) Sweeter than honey, but I'll bet ya money 
She'll find a way to make you (D) break 
So (E) don't bother askin' me about love 
Cause, I wrote the book on (A) heartache
