[E] [A]
I once had a love, a true [D] and lasting love
But [A] the fool in me came out [E] one night
And with [A] her loving eye, she saw [D] right through my lies
And [A] she changed the night [E] I stepped across [A] the line
I should have watched that first step
It was a mighty [D] big step
[A] When I started stepping out [E] of line
Though she's [A] still loving me
It's not the way [D] it used to be
[A] That first step [E] did something to [A] her mind
[E] [A]
I watched her slip away a little [D] more every day
For [A] my conscience couldn't live with all [E] the shame
[E] And she's [A] growing colder
Since the day [D] I told her
[A] And the love we had [E] will never be [A] the same
I should have watched that first step
It was a mighty [D] big step
[A] When I started stepping out [E] of line
[F#] Though she's [A] still loving me
It's not the way [D] it used to be
[A] That first step [E] did something to [A] her mind
That first step did something to her mind
I once had a love, a true [D] and lasting love
But [A] the fool in me came out [E] one night
And with [A] her loving eye, she saw [D] right through my lies
And [A] she changed the night [E] I stepped across [A] the line
I should have watched that first step
