“Excuses”
Words and music by Donny Douglas
Intro D A G C A x 2
Verse
D A G C A D
When I met you on that first night, I didn’t know what I’d got,
D A G C A D
Whatever it was I knew honey, I hadn’t got a lot,
D A G C A D
I didn’t think much of you, you looked plain ugly to me,
D A G C A D
Then you asked me home with you and I told you that I just wasn’t free
Chorus
D C B G
There’s nothing I’d rather do, than spend the night with you,
D C B G
But I’ve got to get back home, Cause the Cat is on it’s own.
C G D G
So if it’s all right with you, Maybe I’ll come round another night
C G D G
If it’s all right with you, maybe I’ll come round, it’ll be all right
C G D G
So if it’s all right with you, maybe I’ll come round another night
C G D B
If it’s all right with you, maybe I’ll come round, it’ll be all right
Second Verse
Then I met you on the second night, you tried to trap me again,
Your size didn’t open my eyes, and I swear you had more than one chin,
That flowery dress, and your hair such a mess, I gave you naught outa three,
Again you asked me home with you, but I told you I just wasn’t free.
Chorus
Repeat Chorus and ad lib to end
