Robert Francis - Alibi Chords

G Bm
 
   G
 I won't forget the reasons
   Bm
 I went so far to love you
   G
 A man is most important
             Bm
 When he's unmoved by separation
     G
 And tries to match the tempo
          Bm
 In which death succeeds creation
 G
 Burning there to keep you
       Bm
 All I needed was some patience

          C                  Bm
 When you turned into a woman
        G              C
 When I loved you as a child
   C            Bm
 I wanted to protect you
          G                     C  (G)  D
 From the things that made you smile


              C  ( G ) D
 My little alibi
D                                C  ( G ) D
 Time couldn't change us but we tried
D             C ( G ) D
 My little alibi
D                   
 I wanna see you cry

   G
 I won't forget the reasons
   Bm
 I went so far to love you
     G
 The patterns in the trees and winds
    Bm
 Forgot themselves inside you
     G
 But I was not the wind
           Bm
 I was an anchor just to keep you
    G
 As clean, never fleeting
          Bm
 Like the innocence that bound you

     C          Bm
 And I hate to say it
              G             C
 But you were bad in every way
   C              Bm
 I guess I had it coming
   G             C    ( G ) D
 I feel it still today


              C  ( G ) D
 My little alibi
D                                C  ( G ) D
 Time couldn't change us but we tried

 My little alibi

 I wanna see you cry

 Am   F    C    D
 Oohh oohh-oohh oohh
 C    D
 Oohh-oohh
