     F                 C/G     C       F 
You said you went downtown to look for me 
        F                 C/G  C         F 
Did you have to dress up fancy as could be 
     Bb                                  F 
You know I never leave the house in old jacky clothes lookin' like slut 
    G7                                       C7 
And hie downtown just'a looking my best for you

    F                C/G     C      F 
Now I'm not accusin' you of doin' wrong 
            F             C/G        C       F 
But that's awful late for you to be out and gone 
     Bb                                       F 
Now look who's talkin' bout bein' late and wittin' about: "sit and wait" 
      G7                                 C7
