SWEET LIPS
Copyright January 7, 1990 by F. R. Stough
INTRODUCTION (Guitar)
A7 D A
Talk to me SWEET LIPS, tell me a lie.
A G E A
I just couldn't take it, if you said good-bye.
A7 D A
Talk to me SWEET LIPS, make believe she's with you.
B E
If you have to pretend, you're holding her then
E A
That will just have to do.
GUITAR LEAD
A D A
I want your SWEET LIPS, close to my ear.
B E
Whispering soft words, that I long to hear.
D A
So, talk to me SWEET LIPS, and lets dance this dance slow
B E
If you're closing your eyes, while you're telling me lies
E7 A
Then I don't want to know.
A7 D A
When we're together, she's on your mind;
B E A
But that doesn't matter, 'cause my love is blind.
A7 D D7 A
So talk to me SWEET LIPS and then kiss me good-night.
B E
I'll be dreamin' of you while you're dreamin of her.
E7 A
I'll pretend it's alright.
A7 D D7 A
Talk to me SWEET LIPS, tell me a lie.
G E A
I just couldn't take it, if you said good-bye.
A7 D D7 A
Talk to me SWEET LIPS, make believe she's with you.
B E
If you have to pretend, you're holding her then
E7 A
That will just have to do.
