You came in my home and took from me
[ch]Eb5/Bb[/ch] Bb
All that I had to give
Bb [ch]Bb/A[/ch] Eb/G Bb/F
I thought that we would be good friends
[ch]C7/E[/ch] F
For as long as we should live
Bb F/Bb
I had some past ex - perience
[ch]Eb5/Bb[/ch] Bb
With people just like you

So what was I to do

How could you let me do - own? You were my friend

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
I wish I knew what strange dis - ease
[ch]C7/E[/ch] F
Could make you act that way
Bb F/Bb
All the things we did together

Bb F/Bb
I guess for the sake of all we had
[ch]Eb5/Bb[/ch] Bb
I should try to under - stand
Bb [ch]Bb/A[/ch] Eb/G Bb/F
But it just doesn't make much sense to me

To trust in you a - gain

I wish we could for - get it all
[ch]Eb5/Bb[/ch] Bb
