Do You Think That I Do Not Know chords and lyrics - SLIM DUSTY

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]The[D]y s[A]ay [D]that I
never have written of love
As a writer of songs should [A]do
They say that I never could
touch the strings
With a touch that is firm and [D]true
They say I know nothing
of women and men
In the fields where love's roses [G]grow
I must write, they say,
with a [D]haunting pen
Do you [A]think that I do not [D]know?

[Verse 2]
My [D]love burst came like an English spring
In the days when our hair was [A]brown
And the hem of her shirt
was a sacred thing
Her hair was an angel's [D]crown
The shock when another man
touched her arm
Where the dancer sat in [G]a row'
The hope and despair and
[D]the false alarm
Do you [A]think that I do not [D]know?

[Verse 3]
By the [D]amber lights on
the western farms
You remember the question you [A]put
While you held her warm in
your quavering arms
You trembled from head to [D]foot
The electric shock from her fingertips
The murmuring answer [G]low
The soft shy yielding of [D]warm red lips
Do you [A]think that I do not
[D]know?
[G][D][A]

[Verse 4]
[D]
She was buried at Brighton,
where Gordon sleeps
When I was a [A]world away
And the sad old garden its secret keeps
For nobody knows [D]today.
She left a message for me to read
Where the wild, wide oceans [G]flow
Do you know how the heart
of [D]a man can bleed?
Do you [A]think that I do not [D]know?

[Verse 5]
[D]I stood by the grave where
the dead girl lies
When the sunlit scene was [A]fair
'Neath the white clouds
high in the autumn skies
I answered the message [D]there
But the haunting words of the dead to me
Shall go wherever I [G]go
She lives in the marriage that
[D]might have been
Do you [A]think that I do not [D]know?
Do you [A]think that I do not [D]know?
