We Have No Secrets from No Secrets - 1972

D
We have no secrets  
                          G
We tell each other everything
             A            G
About the lovers in the past
               Em7
And why they didn't last

Bm         
We share a cast of characters from A to Z
C#m7                    F# 
We know each others fantasies
D      Dmaj7              D6     C9
And though we know each other better when we explore

Em7           A
Sometimes I wish
Em7           A
Often I wish
Em7           A
That I never knew
G               Cmaj7      F6
Some of those secrets of yours

D
The water was cold
                     G
The beach was empty but for one
A            G
Now you were lying in the sun
                A
Wanting and needing no one

       Bm
Then some child came
        Bm
You never asked for her to come
C#m7                      F#7
She drank a pint of your rum
D      Dmaj7              
And later when you told me
D6                C9
You said she was a bore

Em7           A
Sometimes I wish
Em7           A
Often I wish
Em7           A
That I never knew
G               Cmaj7      F6
Some of those secrets of yours

Eb                Dmaj9
In the name of honesty
G                        D
In the name of what is fair
Em                       D
You always answer my questions
Em7                               D
But they don't always answer my prayers

D 
And though I know you say
D      Dmaj7              D6     C9
That it's me that you adore
Em7           A
Sometimes I wish
Em7           A
Often I wish
Em7                          A
That I never, never, never knew
G               Cmaj7      F6
Some of those secrets of yours
G               Cmaj7      F6
Some of those secrets of yours
G               Cmaj7      F6
Some of those secrets of yours

D
We have no secrets
Tell each other most everything now
