G Am
She looked on me sweetly
C G
I told her I couldn't stay
Am
I reasoned discreetly
C G
Yet I couldn't turn away
 
C F C F
Two nights I'd played and I still hadn't prayed
Bb Eb Bb Eb
For the girl in L.A. who called me today
G F C G C
To say, "I love you"
 
If I really loved you
Why'd Rebecca come today?
And I placed her above you
Blind to all except my own way
 
In a cold country town in a green gingham gown
I'm pledged to a dove but I must give some love
To Rebecca
