Excuses

“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
