PRETTY WORDS
(Marty Robbins)

Too late to be sorry, too late to forget.
I don't know what's happened to me.
I know that I'm lonely. I know that I'm left.
Pretty words make a fool out of me.

Pretty words, pretty words, you spoke such pretty words.
You spoke pretty words warm and sweet.
Now you've gone. Here am I. Wanna smile but I cry.
Pretty words made a fool out of me.

Love that's strong for a day like a flower fades away,
Then I think of the things that could be.
I don't want to forget. I'm not sorry I left.
Pretty words make a fool out of me.

Pretty words, pretty words, how I love those pretty words!
Pretty words were like Heaven to me.
It's as plain as can be. It's so easy to see.
Pretty words made a fool out of me.

This is an old country torch song that shows how beautiful three chords can sound. Said to say I don't know its origins, but the chorus goes, "pretty words, pretty words, you spoke such pretty words/ pretty words were like heaven to me..." I remember it from the soulful Tompall Glaser, and also believe the Amazing Rhythm Aces did it. Anybody here know it?
