I'm Gonna Tell Your Conscience On You Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Oh, [D]I'm gon[G]na
tell your conscience
what a [A]bad girl you've been
Why [D]don't you ask your conscience
if we're [G]sweethearts or just friends
You're wrongin' me too often,
and you're [A]drivin' me to my coffin
I'm [D]gonna tell your conscience all [G]new
You told me many years ago
you [D]loved no woman but me
He promised we'd get married
and we'd [G]raise a family
Then one night I caught you tight
and [D]kissing my best pal
I mean it, he went ahead with him,
but I still had my [G]gal
It was a time when I paid
you an [D]unexpected call
He thought that I was out of town
while [G]you were having a ball
And I peeked through your keyhole,
[D]much to my surprise
I beer and wine and whiskey,
too, seven other guys
[G]Oh, I'm gonna tell your conscience
what a [A]bad girl you've been
Why [D]don't you ask your conscience
if we're just sweethearts
or just [G]friends?
You're prongin' me too often,
and you're [A]drivin' me to my coffin
I'm [D]gonna tell your conscience on [G]you
Now, the night before our wedding day,
I'd [D]choose my nails all right
Kept wondering if things were in order,
[G]everything all right
Then rode up to the church house
with my [D]be st man at my side
I walked up to the altar
and I found there was no [G]bride
And you're afraid of getting married,
you don't [D]know what love's about
I'm giving you just one more chance
to [G]straighten yourself out
How can you face your conscience
and go [D]on your life this way?
You should realize it's wrong
and other people doesn't [G]pay
Oh, I'm gonna tell your conscience
what a [A]bad girl you've been
Why [D]don't you ask your conscience
if you're just [G]sweethearts
or just friends
You're wrongin' me too often
and you're [A]drivin' me to my coffin
I'm [D]gonna tell your conscience, hom[G]ie
