How long  has this been  goin' on?

Well, if friends with their fancy persuasion

Then I can't help but have my suspicions
Cm                             Bb
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem.
Cm                          Bb
And you said you was never intending
Cm                       Bb

Cm                          Bb
But there ain't any use in pretending.
Cm                   Bb          Bm
It could happen to us any day.
