EI used to know everything about you
But today when I tried to point you out
To F#one of my friends
I'd picked the Bwrong girl again
Don't see you in the F#crowd anymore
I think it's you but I Bcan't be sure
E(w/riff 1 x2)
You're wearing disguises
Occasionally a girl surF#prises me
When she Bturns out to be Dyou.
E(w/riff 1 x4)
Wearing disguises.
EI don't think you want me to see you ever again
Just today I saw you dressed as a F#flower-bed
Last week you had a Bwig on your head
Mis-directing traffic F#in the street
And your shoes were too Bbig for your feet
E(w/riff 1 x2)
You're wearing disguises
Occasionally a girl surF#prises me
When she Bturns out to be Dyou.
E(w/riff 1 x4)
Wearing disguises.
F# (tacet) (instrumental)
E(w/riff 1 x4)
F#I used to know everything about you
But today when I tried to point you out
To G#one of my friends
I'd picked the C#wrong girl again
Don't see you in the G#crowd anymore
I think it's you but I C#can't be sure
You're wearing disF#guises
Occasionally a girl surG#prises me
When she C#turns out to be Eyou.
