Well, you didn't think I knew that you'd been cheatin' on me
    G                                                   C
You thought that I was stayin' home while you went on a spree
                                                           F
But I've been staying outta sight and I see the things you do
                  C/E     G/D          G        C
I've been playin' possum, I've been a- watchin' you

[Chorus]
        F                                     C
Playin' possum, playin' possum,  a-watchin' you
       D7                                               G
Seein' you do all those thing that I know you shouldn't do
    C                                               F
But I'll keep hanging on because my love for you is true
                  C/E        G/D     G      C
I'll keep playing possum and keep on loving you

Last night I climbed up in a tree a-just outside his house
    G                                          C
And I saw him a-chasing you, a-playing cat and mouse
                                                         F
Then I crawled up and went on home I didn't know what to do
                    C/E         E/D          G        C
I've been a-playing possum, yes I've been a- watching you

[Chorus]
        F                                     C
Playin' possum, playin' possum,  a-watchin' you
       D7                                               G
Seein' you do all those thing that I know you shouldn't do
    C                                               F
But I'll keep hanging on because my love for you is true

I'll keep playing possum and keep on loving you
