D5 O sweet Rosie Lee like a sister to me But you thought I was playing you smart DAD Jealous words won’t lie still in my heart
You saw us there dancing and you thought us romancing Suspicion has ripped us apart Jealous words won’t lie still in my heart
G With your interpretation on my reputation D You blinded yourself to the truth G To add some more weight to your ramblings of late BbF Well, dear won’t you bring us some proof
How you cursed and you cried as you locked me outside You said I was bad from the start Jealous words won’t lie still in my heart
How your father abused and your mother accused They said I was acting a part Jealous words won’t lie still in my heart
O I knew when we met you’d never forget Each pothole and bump in the road And if I left your side what a blow to your pride You’re that better than me, I suppose
O the doubt in me’s growing and it hurts me just knowing Another night’s sleep will depart Jealous words won’t lie still in my heart
