 I used to know everything about you



But today when I tried to point you out

   F#

To one of my friends

               B

I'd picked the wrong girl again

                     F#

Don't see you in the crowd anymore

                       B

I think it's you but I can't be sure

                  E (w/riff 1 x2)

You're wearing disguises

                       F#

Occasionally a girl surprises me

         B               D

When she turns out to be you.

           E (w/riff 1 x4)

Wearing disguises.

 I don't think you want me to see you ever again

                                  F#

Just today I saw you dressed as a flower-bed

                    B

Last week you had a wig on your head

                      F#

Mis-directing traffic in the street

                        B

And your shoes were too big for your feet

                  E (w/riff 1 x2)

You're wearing disguises

                       F#

Occasionally a girl surprises me

         B               D

When she turns out to be you.
