A7              D                                  A7
Please put your rings on a diff'rent finger if you meet me tonight
                 A7
'Cause I can't stand those suspicious glances
                                            D
'Cause I know the things they're saying are right
        D7     G
They're saying why don't you straighten up
                 G
And see what you've got to lose
C                                                            G
Put it all down to fate but you still got the chance to choose
G                         F          C
I don't want to hear your whole life story
    A                                       D       D7
Or about my strange resemblance to some old flame
G                 F        C
All I want is one night of glory
D                                  G 
I don't even know your second name

B7              E
Please put your rings on a diff'rent finger 
             B7
'Cause we've got so much at stake
            B7
I can't stand those suspicious glances
                                       E
'Cause they seem to cover ev'ry move I make
E7       A                        E
But if I can be alone with you completely tonight
               B    
Put your rings on a diff'rent finger
                      A  E  F#m7 (XX2222) E
Before I turn out the light
