Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Intro

You say she's a very good friend

Circumstances I should understand

But like recurring tide she comes on to you

And looks as though she's looking for a man

Honey, don't make yourself so available

[hold]

My pride's in my pocket, but I can be reasonable

Still, all in all, I foresee my own fall

But I've climbed too far to drop, so stop [repeat intro chords]

I know it's your ego puts the smile on your face

Because you know you got your options open

She's a beguiling snake, and she'll keep what she takes

When she leaves you, I'll be the one coping

Honey, don't make yourself so available

My pride's in my pocket, but I can be reasonable

Still, through and through I can see clean through you

I know you like to be the one on top, but stop

You will miss my conversation

When you're talking to yourself

You'll be thumbing for advice through the

Pages of the novels on your shelf

[hold]

Honey, don't you see our love together is the very best bet

Put your focus on me and I'll forgive and forget

Throw away your hidden ace, you clever man; take my hand

Well you needn't play the part of your image

This is not a one act play we're living

As long as I'm here the situation is clear

It'll be fifty/fifty take and giving

Honey don't you see a lifetime's not much to ask

Take off your costume and remove your mask

If yes is what you will say, we're gonna start from today

Gonna take it to the very top; never stop
