Lyrics

You think the love you nev er had might (F)save you, but (C)true love (Am7)takes a lit tle (Dm7)time. You can touch it with your fin gers and (Am7)try to be lieve your eyes. Is it love or lies? So you’re (Am7)keep ing your dis tance, a lit tle bit of (G)room a (C)round you. But if he doesn n’t re turn your call on time, oh, my, my, you just act like a fool on a hol i day. There’s (Am7)noth ing that you would n’t try. You must be a (F)pris ’ner in dis (C)guise. Well, this (G)night life is (G)my life, but there’s no one else in it, and some times those (Bb9)lone some breez es blow. Well, it’s (G)no show so you (G)might as well go if you think you could win it with out (Dm7)los in’ and let tin’ it show. This cit y is no place to hide in; (Ebmaj7)ev ’ry bod y knows your num ber, and you know that you could (Dm7)nev er be a lone if you tried. You just run like a man with no rea son to run and (Am7)no place to ev er ar rive. (CN.C.)You must be a (F)pris ’ner, you (C)look just like a (F)pris ’ner; well, (C)you must (Dm7)be a (F)pris ’ner in dis (C)guise.
