[Verse]
C
You're alone at the bar I can tell by the
Dm
look in your eyes
G
You've been hurt by someone who drowned you
C
in cheap booze and lies
C
I can tell by the tears that you've thrown
away years,
F Em Dm
And the end isn't any surprise
G
You've found out it's true there's no future
for you
G C
In Liquor and Cheap Alibis
[Chorus]
F Fm
You dance with me softly as slowly we head
for the door.
D D7
Sweet nothings we spoke promise only one
G GAUG
night and no more
C C7
We turn down the bed love each other before
F Em Dm
passion dies
G
Tonight I can give more than Liquor and

Cheap Alibis
[Verse]
D D7
You awake in my arms now I've tasted the
G
charms you possess
A
I watch as you smile and you reach for your
D
red satin dress
D
I'd like you to stay, but you must leave you
say
G F#m Em
To taste someone else's delights

When you meet face to face, you can give him
a taste
D
Of your Liquor and Cheap Alibis

You dance with me softly as slowly we head
