Intro: (F) (F)
That (F) call was from the office and I (Bb) guess I'll have to burn the midnight (F) oil again (Bb) (F)
And hon' you know how much the boss depends on me to lend a helping (C7) hand
I (F) watch him in the mirror as I (Bb) lie and tell him I don't know how (F) late I'll be (Bb) (F)
While I'm puttin' on my makeup, (C7) I'm puttin' on the one that really (F) loves me (F#)
The (F#) girls all got together and they (B) called to see if I could have some (F#) fun tonight (B) (F#)
But you know me the only thing I do is go to work and watch T(C#)V
And I (F#) watch him in the mirror as I (B) lie and tell him I don't know how (F#) late I'll be (B) (F#)
While I'm puttin' on my makeup, (C#) I'm puttin' on the one that really (F#) loves me
And tonight I'll cheat a(B)gain and tomorrow I'll be (F#) sorry
And I'll feel kind of dirty 'cause I'll have the midnight oil all (C#) over me (C#7)
God (F#) knows his dream would shatter if he (B) knew the devil had me and won't (F#) set me free (B) (F#)
While I'm puttin' on my makeup, (C#) I'm puttin' on the one that really (F#) loves me
While I'm puttin' on my makeup, (C#) I'm puttin' on the one that really (F#) loves me (B) (F#)
