Intro: G5 

G5                  F5        C5       G5 
I have been around this old block before
                   D5             D5 
I've walked into abruptly closing doors
         G5 
Schooled in hard knocks, I've learned alot 
                      C5
About how a heart can break 
  G5                   C5    G5
I might not know what love is 
       D5            G5
But, I know what it ain't 
            D5
   It ain't layin' in the dark 

   And wonderin' why she hasn't called 
                G5
   And now it's 2 a.m. 
            D5
   It ain't drivin' by her house  

   To find her wrapped up in the arms 
           E5        C5    D5
   Of your ex-best friend  
            G5
   It ain't bold-faced lies 

   Or alibis 
                   C5
   It cannot be explained 
     G5                   C5    G5
   I might not know what love is 
          D5            G5
   But, I know what it ain't 
G5
You say you could  
F5       C5      G5
Show me how to love 

Baby there's one thing 
D5              D5
You can be sure of 
           G5
I wouldn't treat you wrong 

Cause I've been on 
                    C5
The hurtin' side of pain 
  G5                   C5    G5
I might not know what love is 
       D5            G5
But, I know what it ain't 
            D5
   It ain't showin' up for dinner 

   With a rose and charddonay 
                 G5
   Then drinkin' by yourself 
              D5
   It ain't a postcard from Hawaii 

   Sayin' we can still be friends 
                 E5      C5    D5
   But, I've met someone else  
            G5
   It ain't bold-faced lies 

   Or alibis 
                   C5
   It cannot be explained 
     G5                   C5    G5
   I might not know what love is 
          D5            G5
   But, I know what it ain't 
              D5
   It ain't a mink coat 

   40 pairs of shoes 
                             G5
   2, 14 carat anklets on my MasterCard 
            D5
   It ain't walkin' in a pawnshop 

   Recognizing her engagement ring 
       E5        C5    D5
   She swore she lost  
            G5
   It ain't bold-faced lies 

   Or alibis 
                   C5
   It cannot be explained 
     G5                   C5    G5
   I might not know what love is 
          D5            G5
   But, I know what it ain't 
          G5
   If you had all day, I could tell you things 
                               C5
   That would make a grown man faint 
     G5                   C5    G5
   I might not know what love is 
          D5            G5
   But, I know what it ain't
