That Ain't The Way I Heard It

• A#

 
Intro: A# G# D# A# (x4) 
 
VERSE 1: 
 
A#         G#     D#         A# 
After you came in late last night 
                G#    D#  A# 
You said you'd been alone 
                  G#       D#        A# 
Just needed some room to clear your mind 
               G#         D#   A# 
A little time away from home 
 
VERSE 2: 
 
                  G#     D#      A# 
Told me you were out on highway nine 
             G#    D#   A# 
Down by the river bend 
                   G#            D#       A# 
But this town has ears and this town has eyes 
                   G#          D#     A# 
And a whole lot of so called friends 
 
CHORUS: 
 
G# D#                         A# 
Oooooh that ain't the way I heard it 
G# D#                      A# 
Ooh that ain't the way I heard it 
 
VERSE 3: 
 
                          G#         D#      A# 
Don't you think I wanna trust every word you say 
                           G#           D#   A# 
Don't you think I want to look in your eyes 
             G#     D#   A# 
And feel suspicion slip away 
                      G#         D#   A# 
When you say you got nothing to hide 
 
CHORUS: 
 
G# D#                         A# 
Oooooh that ain't the way I heard it 
G# D#                      A# 
Ooh that ain't the way I heard it 
 
VERSE 4: 
 
Gm                      C 
Throw me out a lifeline baby 
Gm                   C 
Offer me a grain of truth 
Gm                             C 
Treat me with a little bit of dignity 
G#                      F 
I think I deserve that much from you 
 
VERSE 5: 
 
 A#          G#         D#      A# 
Give me one reason for stayin' cool 
                G#       D#    A# 
Tell me they're no good liars 
               G#           D#    A# 
Don't make me play your pathetic fool 
                    G#    D#   A# 
Baby, show me that old desire
