Verse 1

G                       G7
I've held you close ten thousand times
    C                 G
You promised you’d be mine
You broke my heart ten thousand ways
         D7                  G
When you kissed me your last time

Verse 2

                     G7
I'm worried troubled I can't sleep
     C            G
This story I must tell
The worst mistake I’ve ever made
    D7             G
Was loving you too well

Verse 3

                 G7
Another man took you from me
   C                G
He stole your heart away
I've often prayed to God above
      D7               G
You'd wander back some day

Verse 2

                     G7
I'm worried troubled I can't sleep
     C            G
This story I must tell
The worst mistake I’ve ever made
    D7             G
Was loving you too well

Verse 2

                     G7
I'm worried troubled I can't sleep
     C            G
This story I must tell
The worst mistake I’ve ever made
    D7             G
Was loving you too well
