The Monkees Words Lyrics

"Words"
(Tommy Boyce - Bobby Hart)
Intro:
4X; continue into verse
bass (w/tremolo gtr and bell tree) :
v v v v
Verse 1:
Girl, don't you know everytime I see you smiling
Hurts so bad 'cause when I see you I start crying
Try everything to stop but there's no denying
Falling in love with you, girl, is just like dying
Ahh... don't walk away
How... how can I make you stay
Don't turn away
I can still hear you saying those
Chorus:
Words that never were true
Spoken to help nobody but you
Words with lies inside
But small enough to hide 'til your playing was through
repeat intro riff, 1X
Verse 2:
Girl don't you know we can work it out with talking
You won't turn around nor slow down your walking
I've given you everything with a kiss to seal it
You have to get your kicks out of tryin' to steal it
2: here
Now... I'm standing
Strange... strange voices in my ears
I feel the tears
But all I can hear are those
repeat chorus
repeat intro riff, 2X
Instrumental break:
Organ solo over intro riff
(note descending inner voice in organ chord: C# B A# A G#)
repeat verse 2 from "Now..."
repeat chorus; fade 3rd time
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
