David Allan Coe – Looking In The Mirror
Capo 1

E
Looking In The Mirror
        A               E
Must be harder than you thought
                               A
Truth is not a pretty sight to see
Cheatin’ ain’t worth cheatin’ honey
E                          F#m
When you’re getting’ caught
                                B
Lovin’ him while losin’ you and me.

E
Maybe I was foolish
          A              E
Sometimes dreamers often are
                                A
I believed that you believed in me
Standing in love’s quicksand honey
E
Reachin’ for a star
                 B              E
Lookin’ for your love to set me free.

Chorus:
A
I’ve seen all them dreams
       E                       A
I ever thought was coming true
                                  E    A
Shattered like the mirror in your hall
                              E                B
Leaving you reflection like a four letter word
                                E
Fading quickly on some bathroom wall.

E
Trying to understand love 
       A               E
Is the hardest part of all
                               A
Does it really matter whose to blame
Once I called you honey
      E                 F#m
Now I never call at all
                               B
Knowing you would only call me names.

E
Seeing it was over 
        A                   E
Did not mean that you could go 
                               A

Leaving me the pleasure of the pain
Trusting someone else will be
  E
A harder row to hoe
                          E
Lovin’ won’t me be easier again.

Chorus:

E
Looking In The Mirror
        A               E
Must be harder than you thought
                               A
Truth is not a pretty sight to see
Cheatin’ ain’t worth cheatin’ honey
E                          F#m
When you’re getting’ caught
                                B
Lovin’ him while losin’ you and me.
