Intro
[Abm] [Bb7] [Ebm]
Chorus
[Ebm]Oh, I was warned about her love
[Bb7] But like a fool I went [Ebm]on
Whether [Bb7]they're right or wrong
At least the mystery [Ebm]is gone
Verse 1
[Bb7] The more people talked [Ebm]about her
[Bb7] The more I had [Ebm]to see
[Bb7] I had to find out for [Ebm]myself
What [Abm]could she do [Ebm]for me
[Bb7] Her lips were so [Ebm]inviting
[Bb7]Her hands soft [Ebm]to touch
[Bb7] After just one [Ebm]kiss
I [Abm]knew I was out [Ebm]of luck
Pre-Chorus
[Abm] From then [Gb]on I was hers to [Bb7]control
And knowing [Abm]that, she robbed me
Of [Gb]my heart and robbed me of [Bb7]my soul

[Bb7] She had a left hand filled [Ebm]with diamonds
[Bb7] And the other filled [Ebm]with lies
[Bb7] She saw right [Ebm]through me
There was [Abm]no place [Ebm]to hide
