You     came in my home and        took from me
     [ch]Eb5/Bb[/ch]                Bb

Bb                         F/Bb                                           
    How can you stand and       lie to me
     [ch]Eb5/Bb[/ch]                  Bb                                             
And          look me in the      face
    Bb         [ch]Bb/A[/ch]              Eb/G               Bb/F

Could        make you act that     way
Bb                     F/Bb                                               
    All the things we        did together
       [ch]Eb5/Bb[/ch]                   Bb                                          
I've          known you for so     long
   Bb           [ch]Bb/A[/ch]          Eb/G            Bb/F

I      guess for the sake of        all we had
           [ch]Eb5/Bb[/ch]                 Bb

     Bb                [ch]Bb/A[/ch]       Eb/G            Bb/F                               
Oh,     why did this        ever        happen to        us?
     Eb           F           Bb
