The Best Kiss - Elliott Murphy ------------------------------- Capo: IV Intro: Am Am Church chimes ringing just next store Dm Am I was looking for something more Am Bells tolling for a broken heart Dm Am I must love just to fall apart Am That afternoon everything was all right Dm Am World was burning up disease and fright Am Sitting around lazy a spoon Dm Am And I was waiting for you and the next full moon Chorus: F E The best kiss I never want to miss F (E) Am Came from your lying lips spite of this Verse: Am But you know I was long past that Dm Am Keeping cool in my panama hat Am Lost weekends in the distant sublime Dm Am Take my vacation, sunset lavender time Am Dm Am Just one trick and I do it out of rabbits Am I smell the perfume on her tender slim wrist Am Dm Am And I keep telling myself it don?t get better than this Chorus: F E The best kiss I never want to miss F E Am Came from your lying lips spite of this Bridge: Bb E Am Everybody knows where the conscience goes Bb E Am Everybody shows, that where the evil grows Verse: Am Kids upstairs asleep as a mouse Dm Am My own worries are too big for this house Am Newspapers try to tell me what matters Dm Am I?m telling you they?re all as crazy as Manhatters Am I remember the shine of her bottom lip Dm Am And the kind of smile that could launch a thousand ships Am Sit around nursing my wet memory Dm Am Or I could walk upstairs where she?d be waiting for me Chorus: F E The best kiss I never want to miss F E Am Came from your lying lips spite of this
