(G) I have been around (F) this old (C) block be(G)fore

   And wonderin' why she hasn't called
   And now it's (G) 2 a.m.
   It ain't (D7) drivin' by her house 
   To find her wrapped up in the arms
   Of your (Em) ex-best fr(C)iend (D7)
   It ain't (G) bold-faced lies

   It ain't (D7) showin' up for dinner
   With a rose and charddonay
   Then drinkin' (G) by yourself
   It ain't a (D7) postcard from Hawaii

   It ain't a (D7) mink coat
   40 pairs of shoes
   2, 14 carat anklets on my (G) MasterCard
   It ain't (D7) walkin' in a pawnshop
   Recognizing her engagement ring
   She (Em) swore she (C) lost (D7)
