verse 1 

G             Em     
Baby we could rent this house 
      C                 G 
Put a fan on the window sill 
G                  Em         C         G 
Cause I don't wanna hear that whippoorwill 
G                    Em           C               G 
Or maybe this is our sentence for all the time we killed 
G                   Em        C         G 
Cause i don't wanna hear that whippoorwill

G                    Em               C            G

But the door, it opens out so you can't kick it in 
G                        Em              C              G 
And her father sweet old man he is comes by to lend a hand 
G                   Em                C          G 
Darlin', i told you all along i only partly understand 
G                Em                 C          G 
And she comes by begging for that lonely sin again saying

"You'd rather be a liar than an honest, lonely man"
