COh does a guilty conscience Fmake you rule the Cday
You let another take you from my G7side
CWhy'd you wed your new love Fare you lying to Cme
Or does a guilty G7conscience hurt your Cpride
G7Does he take you to the same old Cplaces
Does he kiss you like I used to G7do
CWhen you see the old familiar Ffaces
CDoes a guilty G7conscience bother Cyou
Have you kept my letters Fand my photoCgraph
Have they faded like the love we G7knew
CWhen you read them over Fdoes your heart Cregret
And does a guilty G7conscience make you Cblue
G7When the day is done and night is Cfalling
And you see that big moon in the G7sky
CWhen you lay your head upon your Fpillow
Does a guilty G7conscience make you Ccry
