Mary Chapin Carpenter – Read My Lips (Guitar)

G
A few more cigarettes now honey

G
One more jolt of Joe

G
A couple hours past New York city

G
A few more turnpike tolls

C
One more minute away from you

C
Is a minute that lasts too long

     G
When I get back we're going to lock the door baby

G
Disconnect the phone

         D
We could use a week to get reacquainted

D
Some time to feel it out

    C
But leave your small talk back at home baby

C
This ain't what that's about

             G
Just read my lips

G
Yes I think you can

G
Just read my lips

G
And you'll understand

G
Well I can see it in your eyes now honey

G
Because I've seen it in myself

G
You've got a few old scars that's ancient history

G
Baby that was someone else

C
Well I could tell you that you're only human

C
That you're right to be afraid

                G
But how can you pull back on me now

G
Don't you make that big mistake

               D
Well you could give it up

D
Or you could just give in

D
Now it's a choice between the two

C
You aren't born no yesterday baby

C
I wasn't born a fool

          G
Just read my lips

G
Yes I think you can

G
Just read my lips

G
And you'll understand

G
Just read my lips

G
And you can rad my mind

G
Just read my lips

G
Just one more time

G
This ain't no game of cat and mouse

G
It ain't no truth or dare

G
I ain't got twenty questions for you

     A              D
Just one thing to declare

          G
Just read my lips

G
Yes I think you can

G
Just read my lips

G
And you'll understand

G
Baby read my lips

G
And you can read my mind

G
Just read my lips baby

G
One more time, oh
