[D] [G] This is the first time I met you babe, [C] oh you've been cutting me like a knife.

[G] But instead I went right there to [C] get her.
[Dm] I was [C] feeling so [G] all alone.
[C] But as I got [G] to the door, [C] I [Dm] tried to remember what I [Gm] wrote.
[G] But [C] the words [G] had a burn like coals in my heart, [D] they choked like soap in my throat.
[Gm] That's why if you don't [Fm]
[C] know about that woman, then I don't believe you can [Gm] see to write your [G]
name.
I've [D] done everything in the world to let [C] you [G] know.
