[Intro] (x2)
Waitin', wa
tchin' the clo
ck, it's four
o'clock, it's
got to stop
Tell him, t
ake no more, s
he practices h
er speech
As he opens th
e door, she ro
lls over...
Pretends to sl
eep as he look
s her over
She lies an
d says she's i
n love with hi
m, can't find
a better man
She dreams
in color, she
dreams in red,
can't find a
better man...
Can't
find a better
man
Can't
find a better
man
Ohh...
[Intro]
Talkin' to
herself, there
's no one else
who needs to
know...
She tells h
erself, oh...
(FULL STRUMMING FROM HERE ON OUT)
Memories ba
ck when she wa
s bold and str
ong
And waiting fo
r the world to
come along
Swears she kne
w it, now she
swears he's go
ne
She lies an
d says she's i
n love with hi
m, can't find
a better man
She dreams
in color, she
dreams in red,
can't find a
better man
She lies an
d says she sti
ll loves him,
can't find a b
etter man
She dreams
in color, she
dreams in red,
can't find a
better man...
Can't find
a better man
Can't find
a better man
