[C] Unde[Am]rcover
And [F]blame it on the [C]season
It [C]ain't no kinda [Am]reason baby
[F]Why come and [G]go

Had a [C]Lover [Am]
She [F]felt as good as [C]trees
And you can [C]ask her if its [Am]pleasing
You can [F]ask the wind to [C]blow

[CHORUS]
And I would [G]buy for you a diamond
Or my[F]self some gaso[C]line
If I [G]can't afford you darling
Then I [F]can't afford to [C]dream
And is it [F]time I should be [C]moving
Is it [F]time I settle [Am]down
Will [C]I sit still or [Am]will I feel the [F]wheels a spinning [C]round

Well I ain't the brightest
Bird that ever flew
I'm just someone you knew
A road you travelled on

All the colors
They shine and fade away
Well they're just like News Years Day
They're here and then they're gone

[CHORUS]
And I would buy for you a diamond
Or myself some gasoline
If I can't afford you darling
Then I can't afford to dream
And is it time I should be moving
Is it time I settle down
Will I sit still or will I feel the wheels a spinning round

(Instrumental; Same as Chorus)

Lord I love you
I wish you only knew
Well I wish you had a clue
I wish you had a clue you know
But I'm stuck here in Tulsa
With my Oklahoma blues
With a pair of concrete shoes
That got me sinking pretty low

[CHORUS]
And I would buy for you a diamond
Or myself some gasoline
If I can't afford you darling
Then I can't afford to dream
And is it time I should be moving
Is it time I settle down
Will I sit still or will I feel the wheels a spinning round
The wheels a spinning round
The wheels
A spinning
