NOBODY KNOWS ME Lyle Lovett and his Big Band
D BU BU
I like cream in my coffee And I like to sleep late on Sunday
A D BU twice
And nobody knows me like my babe
D BU BU
And I like eggs over easy With the flour tortillas
A D BD G BU2G
Nobody knows me like my babe
CHORUS
G A D G A D G A
Nobody holds me nobody knows me nobody knows me
D BU twice
Like my babe
D BU BU
But it was a dream made to order South of the border
A D BU Twice
And nobody knows me like my babe
G D
And she cried man how could you do it
G D
And I saw that there, there weren't nothing to it
A D

And I like cream in my coffee I hate to be alone on Sunday
A D
Nobody knows me like my babe
