I can explain about last night, though things 

didn't look just right.
Ab     Gb         Ab        Gb      Ebm    Db
Please believe me there was nothing wrong, I 
Eb                      Ab
thought about you baby, all night long.
         Bb       Ab           Gb
Cross my heart, I hope to die, well, I wouldn't 
            Ebm  Abm
tell you no lie.

Eb            
Talk about a piece of rotten luck, you do a 

friend a favor and you wind up stuck.
Ab           Gb                    Eb        Db
She couldn't hold a candle to you, no siree, very 
        Eb
hard to handle like a Model T.
         Bb       Ab           Gb
Cross my heart, I hope to die, well, I wouldn't 
            Ebm  
tell you no lie.



BRIDGE:
Ab                Fm     Ab   Eb
Please believe me when I say, wild horses couldn't 
             Ab
drag me away from you. 
              Fm      Ab               Bb
Cause I don't have to look too hard to see what I've 

got in my own back yard.

So, please forgive me and forget, don't say my alibi's 

all wet.
  Ab                                     Db   Eb
I miss those kisses from your honeycomb, this humble 

bumble bee just wants to fly back home.
         Bb       Ab           Gb
Cross my heart, I hope to die, well, I wouldn't 
            Ebm  
tell you no lie.
