Am
If I didn't know better I'd hang my hat right there
E                             Am
If I didn't know better I'd follow you up the stairs
Am
Stop saying those sweet things you know I like to hear
E                             Am
The horns are blowing louder, the bailiffs drawing near.


[Chorus]

Dm                  Am
Why do I keep drinking
Dm                  Am
Wasting my time on you
Dm                  E
If I didn't know better

Well damnit I do


[Verse 2]


Am
There's a hole in what you're saying, I can plainly see
E                                   Am
You have a lover that's waiting but baby you're right here with me
Am
Ooh, you might as well be the devil, Oh, keeping me out past three
E                                  Am
Oh, you're the one with that apple,so baby you can't blame me


[Chorus]

Dm                  Am
Why don't you keep drinking
Dm                    Am
Give me one night with you
Dm                  E
If I didn't know better
