Tried so hard baby, but I
Just can't see what a
Woman like you is
Doing with me, so tell me

who I see when I
Look in your eyes, is that
You baby or just a
Brilliant disguise

|Chord diagramG+G Gadd2 |Gadd2sus Chord diagramG+G   |
             Now
|Chord diagramD5D5      |            |
Look at me baby    struggling to do

Everything right      and then it

Trust myself                      now you play the

Loving woman, I'll play the
Faithful man but just don't
Look too close into the
Palm of my hand. We

Stood at the alter, the gypsy swore our
Future was bright but
Come the wee wee hours, well maybe baby the
Gypsy lied, so when you

Look at me, you better
Look hard and look twice, is that
Me baby or just a
Brilliant disguise

                          Tonight our
Bed is cold, I'm lost in the
Darkness of our love, God have
Mercy on the man who

Doubts what he's sure
