Pierre Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [G]danced in the desert, in the pouring rain
Drank with the devil and forgot my name
Woke with somebody when the morning came
[G]No one there to shame me for my youth
'Cause I wouldn't be with you

[Verse 2]
And then I [G]found me a lover
who could play the bass
He's kinda quiet, but his body ain't
[G]Spend the days dreaming
and the nights awake
Doin' things we know we should[C]n't do
'Cause I wouldn't be [Em]with you
Says he can't believe he [D]found me
Wraps his arms a[C]round me

[Chorus 1]
Yeah-eah, eah-eah-eah-[G]yeah
I can't let him in
You call me up and [G]ask me how I've been
I'll call your bluff and
[C]Keep on telling, telling, telling you lies
[G]Keep on telling, telling, telling you lies
No, I can't let him in
You play me rough, but [G]I won't let you in
So, call my bluff, I'll
[C]Keep on telling, telling, telling you lies
[G]Keep on telling, telling, telling you lies
[Em]Oh, count down to the day
they may come [C]true

[Verse 3]
And I [G]fell for a vagabond, a month at tops
Lied and said his bike was in the motor shop
[G]Drove my car once and made the tire pop
Still we had some fun, till I [C]came to
'Cause I wouldn't be [G]with you

[Verse 4]
On the [G]Fourth of July, I met a man, Pierre
Lied about his age, but I didn't care
[G]Spoke in broken English
but the heart was there
In those eyes of sky and o[C]cean blue
'Cause I wouldn't be [Em]with you
Says he can't believe he [D]found me
Wraps his arms a[C]round me

[Chorus 2]
Yeah-eah, eah-eah-eah-[G]yeah
I can't let him in
You call me up and [G]ask me how I've been
I'll call your bluff and
[C]Keep on telling, telling, telling you lies
[G]Keep on telling, telling, telling you lies
No, I can't let him in
You play me rough, but [G]I won't let you in
So, call my bluff, I'll
[C]Keep on telling, telling, telling you lies
[G]Keep on telling, telling, telling you lies
[Em]Oh, count down to the day
they may come [C]true

[Outro 1]
I'm counting [G]down
I'm still so down
I'll come around
