[Verse 1]
E7                                              A      A7
You came into my life when I was looking for an alibi
E7                                A                A7
You looked in my eyes and I could tell you no lie
      E7                                 A            A7
I was making life feel all right, but it wasn't good

E7             A                           E7
Lookin' at you lookin' at me, I knew you'd understood

[Verese 2]
E7                                       A              A7
I've been down for so long looking for a good disguise
E7                                 A        A7
Feelin' sorry for myself, I didn't realize
           E7                                  A             A7
That I was digging holes, acting roles with no lines to say
      E7            A                         E7
I was losing sleep, counting sheep that never went away

[Chorus]
      A
I was waitin' for you to come into my life
A
Making up stories
A7                 E7
Oh, looking for an alibi

[Solo]
E7    A7   E7
E7  A7  E7  A7
A7 A B  E7

[Verse 3]
E7                                                A             A7
Now we're together, it's gonna be never, we'll be parted again
E7                                                A              A7
I've loved you since the day we met, and that was way back when
      E7                                A                      A7
I was making life feel all right tn the same old way (same old way)
    E7             A                    E7
I'm digging holes, acting roles with no lines to say

[Chorus]
      A
I was waitin' for you to come into my life
A
Making up stories
A7                 E7
Oh, looking for an alibi (looking for an alibi)

[Outro]
E7
Ooh looking for an alibi
E7
Oh making those alibis
E7
Oh looking for an alibi...(repeat/fadeout)
