I should think of an ali bi
            Gm             Dm     
Thought I'm innocent, I've still 
            Eb
got a guilty mind
           Gm
There's no place that I can turn to
     Em7b5
When she turns out the lights
   Eb                  Cm
To keep her from seein you
              Gm
burnin' in my eyes

F    Bb       F7                
It's like try in' to hide a fire

Carrin' around this torch in my 
heart

I cannot con ceal it I cannot 
     F7
put it out
     Bb   F7

Tryin' to fight a flame I never 
meant to start

At first it was no problem

Flickering thoughts of you now and 
Dm
then
        Gm            Dm          
Nothin' intimate that she could 
     Eb
call a sin
