Dolly Parton - He Would Know

capo on 1st fret

C Am G
in my mind i’ve made love to you often

F G C
but only in my mind can it be so

C Am G
’cause there’s someone at home that’s countin’ on me

F G C
and if i did , i’m sure that he would know .

C F C
yes , he would know , yes , he could tell

D G
for he has loved long enough to know me very well

F C
and if i lied , he’d see it in my eyes

F G C
i know my guilt would show and he would know .

( the rest of the song it’s played with the same chords ) .

but i must admit you’re someone very special
and it would be so easy to let go
makin’ love to you could be so easy
but if i did , i’m sure that he would know

yes , he would know , yes , he could tell
for , he has loved me long enough to know me very well
and if i lied , he’d see it in my eyes
i know my guilt would show and he would know

my conscience just won’t let me make love to you
i know it would be sweet , but i just can’t
when i go home to him i must be able
to look him in the eyes and say i ain’t

yes , he would know , yes , he could tell
for , he has loved me long enough to know me very well
and if i lied , he’d see it in my eyes
i know my guilt would show and he would know
