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
