F
How manys, one night stands
                          C
How many lips, many hands have held you
         Bb            C
Like I'mding you tonight

F
Too many nights staying up late
Too much powder, too much paint
       C          Bb             C
Oh you can't hide from the Turning of the Tide

Dm       F                 Bb
Did they run their fingers up andn your shabby dress
Dm       F                Bb              C
Did they find some tender moment there in your caress?

F
Boys all say you look so fine
Don'te back a second time
    C          Bb             C
You can't hide from the Turning of the Tide

Poor little sailor, never set eyes on a woman before
Did he tell you that he'd love you, darling, ever mobr />
Pretty little shoes, cheap perfume
Creaking bed in theel room
You can't hide from the Turning of the Tide

Did they run their fingers up andn your shabby dress
Did they find some tender moment there in your caress?

Boys all say you look so fine
Don'te back a second time
You can't hide from the Turning of the Tide
