You came into my life when I was looking for an alibi
E                                 A                A7
You looked in my eyes and I could tell you no lie
      E7                                 A            A7
I was making life feel all right, but it wasn't good
 
E7             A                           E7
Lookin' at you lookin' at me, I knew you'd understood

I've been down for so long looking for a good disguise
E7                                 A        A7
Feelin' sorry for myself, I didn't realise
           E7                                  A             A7
That I was digging holes, acting roles with no lines to say
      E7            A                         E7
I was losing sleep, counting sheep that never went away

      E7                                A                      A7
I was making life feel all right tn the same old way (same old way)
    E7             A                    E7
I'm digging holes, acting roles with no lines to say
