Jealous Words

D5
O sweet Rosie Lee like a sister to 
me
But you thought I was playing you 
smart
D                       A        
Jealous words won’t lie still in 
   D
my heart

You saw us there dancing and you 
thought us romancing
Suspicion has ripped us apart
Jealous words won’t lie still in my 
heart

G
With your interpretation on my 
reputation
Continues after the ad
    D
You blinded yourself to the truth
   G
To add some more weight to your 
ramblings of late
      Bb                           
Well, dear won’t you bring us some 
F
proof

How you cursed and you cried as you 
locked me outside
You said I was bad from the start
Jealous words won’t lie still in my 
heart

How your father abused and your 
mother accused
They said I was acting a part
Jealous words won’t lie still in my 
heart

O I knew when we met you’d never 
forget
Each pothole and bump in the road
And if I left your side what a blow 
to your pride
You’re that better than me, I 
suppose

O the doubt in me’s growing and it 
hurts me just knowing
Another night’s sleep will depart
Jealous words won’t lie still in my 
heart
