The Midnight Oil Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
That [D]call was from the office and I [G]guess
I'll have to burn the midnight [D]oil [G]again[D]
And hon' you know how much the boss
depends on me to lend a helping [A]hand[E][A]
I [D]watch him in the mirror as I [G]lie and tell him
I don't know how [D]late I'll [G]be[D]

[Verse 2]
While I'm [D]puttin' on my [A]makeup I'm puttin'
on the one that really [D]loves [Bb]me[Eb]
The girls all got together and they [Ab]called to
see if I could have some [Eb]fun t[Ab]onight[Eb]

[Verse 3]
But [Eb]you know me the only thing I do is
go to work and watch [Bb]TV[F][Bb]
And I [Eb]watch him in the mirror as I [Ab]lie and tell
him I don't know how [Eb]late I'll [Ab]be[Eb]
While I'm puttin' on my makeup [Bb]I'm
puttin' on the one that really [Eb]loves me

[Verse 4]
And tonight I'll cheat [Ab]again and
tomorrow I'll be [Eb]sorry
And I'll feel kind of dirty cause I'll have
the midnight oil all [Bb]over me
[Eb]God knows his dream would shatter if he [Ab]knew the
devil had me and won't [Eb]set me [Ab]free[Eb]

[Verse 5]
While I'm [Eb]puttin' on my makeup [Bb]I'm puttin'
on the one that really [Eb]loves [Bb]me[Eb]
[Bb]While I'm [Eb]puttin' on my [Bb]makeup I'm puttin'
on the one that really [Eb]loves [Ab]me[Eb][Bb]
