Well, it’s the (G7)se cond time I’ve caught that you talk cause in’ to him; so I have to tell you one more time I think it’s a sin.

I think I’ll (C7)let you down

and leave you (G7)flat,

Well, it’s the Ev ’ry bod y’s (B7)green,

’cause (Am)I’m the one who (B)won your love.

But if they’d (B7)seen

you (Am)talk in’ that way they’d (Bm)laugh in my face.

So (G)please lis ten to me if you wan na stay mine.

I can’t help my feel ings, I’ll go out of my mind.

I’m gon na (C7)let you down

and leave you (G7)flat,

be cause I (D7)told you be fore:

(C7)oh, you can’t do (G7)that.

Ev ’ry bod y’s (G7)that.
