[C] [G]
[C] You think the love you never had [F] might save you
But [C]
true [G]
[A] love takes [D] a little [F] time
[G]
You [Am]
can touch it with your [F]
fingers
[G] [Am] And try to believe your [Dm]
[Am] eyes
Is it [D] love [G]
or lies?
[E] So [Am] you're keeping your distance
A little [G] bit of [C] room around you
But if he doesn't [F] return your [C]
call on [Am] time
[Dm]
Oh my [G] man
[C] You [G] just [Am]
act like a fool on a [G]
[Dm] holiday
There's [Am]
nothing that you wouldn't [Dm]
try
You [F]
[C] [Dm] must [F] be a prisoner [G] in [C]
disguise
Well [Gm] there's not [C] [G] a smile
[C] [Fm]
But there's no one else in it
[Bb]
And [Fm] [Bb] sometimes a lonesome breeze has [Eb]
blown
[G]
But it's no [C] show
So [G] you might [C] not [Fm] fall
If you think you could win it
And [Dm]
[C] [Dm] it's [G]
sure
[C]
[G] [Dm] [Eb]
[A] [Eb] [C]
[G] [C] [Eb]
This [Cm] city is [C]
no place to hide [Eb] in
Everybody [Cm] knows your [C]
number
[G] [Eb]
And you know
[C]
You [Dm] could never [C]
be [Am] alone
[Dm]
If you tried
[G]
You'd just [Am] run like a man with no [E]
reason [Dm] to run
[Am] And no place to ever [F] arrive
You [G] must be [C] a prisoner
You [Dm] look just [C] like a prisoner
[G] Well [C]
you [Dm] must be [F] a prisoner
[G] In [C] disguise
