[Bb] [Cm]
[F] The [Bb] other woman finds [Gm] time to manicure her nails
[Cm] The other [F] woman is perfect where her rival [D] fails
[Gm] And she's [Cm] never seen with pin curls in her hair
[F] [Bb] The other woman [Gm] enchants her clothes with French perfume
[Cm] The other [F] woman keeps fresh cut flowers in each [D] [Gm] room
There are never toys, it's scattered [D] everywhere
[G] And [Cm] when her man comes to call
[Ebm]
He'll find her waiting [Bb] like a lonesome [Dm] queen
[Gm]
Cause when [C] she's by his side
It's such a [Cm] change from her old [Eb] routine
[F] But
[Bb] the other woman [Gm] will always cry herself to sleep
[Cm] The [Eb] other woman [F] will never have his [D] love to [Gm] keep
And as the years go [Cm] by
The other woman will spend her [F] life [Bb]
alone
[Cm] But [F] [Bb]
the other woman [Gm]
will always cry herself to sleep
[Cm]
The other woman [F]
will never have his love [D] to keep
[Gm]
And as the years go by
The [Cm] other woman
[Eb] will spend [F] her life alone
[Bb] [N]
