Verse:
A
I danced in the desert, in the pouring rain
A
Drank with the devil and forgot my name
A
Woke with somebody when the morning came
A
No one there to shame me for my youth
A
Cause I wouldn't be with you
A
And then I found me a lover who could play the bass
A
He's kinda quiet, but his body ain't
A
Spend the days dreaming and the nights awake
A D
Doin' things we know we shouldn't do
D F#m
Cause I wouldn't be with you
Pre-Chorus
F#m E
Says he can't believe he found me
D
Wraps his arms around me
N.C.
Yeah-eah, eah-eah-eah-yeah
A
I can't let him in
A
You call me up and ask me how I've been
A
I'll call your bluff and

Keep on telling, telling, telling you lies
A

You play me rough, but I won't let you in

So, call my bluff, I'll
D
Keep on telling, telling, telling you lies
A
Keep on telling you lies

And I fell for a vagabond, a month at tops

Lied and said his bike was in the motor shop

Drove my car once and made the tire pop

Still we had some fun, till I came to

Cause I wouldn't be with you
A
On the Fourth of July, I met a man, Pierre
A
Lied about his age, but I didn't care
A
Spoke in broken English but the heart was there
A D
In those eyes of sky and ocean blue
D F#m
Cause I wouldn't be with you
Pre-Chorus
F#m E
He says he can't believe he found me
D
Wraps his arms around me
N.C.
Yeah-eah, eah-eah-eah-yeah
Chorus
Outro:
D A
I'm counting dow-ow-ow-ow-own
A
I'm still so dow-ow-ow-ow-own
A
I'll come around
