Beautiful South - Bell-bottomed tear

^FThis is the dinner prepared This is the ^Cmaj7dress that I made This is the c^C7hild I brought up ^A7And this is the w^Gmoman you laid ^FThis is the wo^Fman you laid

This is the per^Ffume I wore This is the ^Cmaj7hotel we stayed This is the ^C7way that I lay ^A7And this is the w^Gmoman you laid ^FThis is the wo^Fman you laid

^GWe promised ourselves this is no one-night s^Emtand ^{G# G}Let us draw all the curtains and strike up the b^Emand ^{G# G}And I'm thrilled by the gentlest touch of your h^Emand ^G# We pr^G7etend

There's a t^Fear, there's a ^Cmaj7tear ^C7Not through confusion through ^A7fea^Gmr, through ^Fmfea^Fr

This is the sm^File that I wore This is the^Cmaj7 song that we played This is the ^C7way that I lay ^A7And this is the w^Gmoman you laid ^FThis is the wo^Fman you laid

^GNext morning our eyes filled with sleepy re^Emgret ^{G# G}A kiss and good-bye and a long cig^Emarette ^{G# G}But the pillow I lay on is cold and it's ^Emwet ^G# Can't pr^G7etend

It's a t^Fear, it's a ^Cmaj7tear ^C7Not through confusion through^A7 fe^Gmar, through ^Fmfea^Fr ^GmAnd knowing at least that love came so n^Fear ^{D# Gm}Just adds to the weight of this bell bottomed ^Ftea^Fr Cmaj7 C7 A7 Gm Fm F

^GRoll out the red carpets and unplug the p^Emhone ^{G# G}Root out the photos you've already s^Emhown ^{G# G}'Cos this one night you won't sleep a^Emlone ^G# Just one n^G7ight

It's a t^Fear, it's a ^Cmaj7tear ^C7Not through confusion through^A7 fe^Gmar, through ^Fmfea^Fr ^GmAnd knowing at least that love came so n^Fear ^{D# Gm}Just adds to the weight of this bell bottomed ^Ftea^Fr Cmaj7 C7 A7 Gm Fm F

There's a t^Fear, there's a ^Cmaj7tear ^C7Not through confusion through^A7 fe^Gmar, through ^Fmfea^Fr ^C7Not through confusion through^A7 fe^Gmar, through ^Fmfea^Fr
