Revenge, must be the reason

But don't count on gettin' back with things you do

Your heart, is like a window
       C                         D
When I look inside I see another man
    G                                  C
But go on and lie, tell him how you've fooled me
    C                                 D
But remember: I saw through your evil plan

(Chorus)

When you've been cheatin'

And I'll_____ always know

When you_____ been untrue

I'll always know
