[C]
Bad lovers face to face in the morning [A] Shy apologies and polite regrets
[F] Slow dancers that left no one to know [D] Outrage glances and indiscreet [B] yawning
[F] Good manners and [G] bad breath get you [Cm] nowhere Even [Am]
presidents have newspaper lovers
[F] Ministers go crawling [Fm] under covers [C] [Am] She's no angel, [C] he's [F] no saint
[C] They're [Am] all bothered up with [F] what was [G] she who sprayed
You [C] said, the teacher [F] never told you anything [C] but white [Am] lies
[Bb] But you never [C] see the light [F] and you [Ab] believe
[Bb] Oh, [G] you haven't captured [F] the feel of those [E] silver lies
[D] And you look [F] so pretty in your new [C] lipstick
Salty lips of socialite sisters [A] with continental fingers [F] that have never seen working [D] blisters
Oh, I know they got their [F] problems I wish [G] I was one of [C] them
[Cm] They [Am] said, I'd be coming home soon
[F] With a sergeant's stripes [Fm] and an empire mug and spoon
[C] No [Am] more fast buck, [C] when are they [F] gonna learn the lesson?
[C] When are they [Am] gonna stop all of [F] these victory [G] processions?
You [C] said, the teacher [F] never told you anything [G] but white lies
[Am]
[Bb] But you never [C] see the light and [F] you believe
[Ab]
[Bb] Oh, you [C] haven't captured [F] the feel of those silver [E] lies
[D] And you look [F] so pretty in your new [C] lipstick
[Bb] You look [C] so pretty in your new lipstick
You look so pretty in your new lipstick
You look so pretty in your new lipstick
You look so pretty in your new lipstick
