I MARRIED HER JUST BECAUSE SHE LOOKS LIKE YOU
(Lyle Lovett, 1989)

KEY OF Bb: capo 3, play in G

G D 2G


 G                C                     G
Its not the words "You know I'll always love you"

G                     D                  G
It's not the words "I wish that I could stay"

  G                           G7           C
It's more the way your lips looked as you spoke them

 G                     D              G
And how the moonlight fell upon your face

C   D      G          D                    G
I married her just because she looks like you


         D                               C             G
And for every time you said no she says honey I'll be glad to

         D                               C               D
And for every time you left me she says darling I'll be there

G                  C       
It's not the words "You'll get over me"

      G        C          G
That made my dreams come true

C   D      G          D                   G
I married her just because she looks like you


G C 2G C G D 2G

     D                               C                 G
And if I had not searched for you I never would have found her

    D                        C                       D
And if I had not loved you I would never have known love

G                           C
It's not the words "Please try to forget me"

      G         C         G
That made my dreams come true

C  D      G           D                    G
I married her just because she looks like you



         D                               C                 G
And for every time you knocked me down she reaches out to help me

         D                                C               D
And for every time you cursed me she says darling I love you

 G                  C
It's not the words "Time heals everything"

      G        C          G
That made my dreams come true

C  D       G           D                  G
I married her just because she looks like you

C  D       G           D                   G  C D G
I married her just because she looks like you
