Intro

 

Verse 1

Once upon a time, a few mistakes ago
I was in your sights, you got me alone
You found me, you found me, you found me-e-e-e-e
I guess you didn't care, and I guess liked that
And when I fell hard, you took a step back
Without me, without me, without me-e-e-e-e

Pre-Chorus

And he's long gone, when he's next to me and I
Realize the blame is on me

Chorus

Bm* G* A*
'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
D* A* Bm*
So shame on me now-ow
G* A*
Flew me to places I'd never been
D* A*
Till you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in 
So shame on me now-ow
Flew me to places I'd never been
D N.C. Bm
Now I'm lyin' on the cold hard ground!
Aahh oohh, trouble, trouble, trouble 
Aahh oohh, trouble, trouble, trouble

Verse 2

No apologies, he'll never see you cry
Pretends he doesn't know, that he's the reason why
You're drowning, you're drowning, you're drowni-i-i-i-ing
And I heard you moved on, from whispers on the street
A new notch in your belt, is all I'll ever be
And now I see, now I see, now I see-e-e-e-ee

Pre-Chorus

He was long gone, when he met me
G N.C.
And I realize, the joke is on me, yeah

Chorus

I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now-ow
Flew me to places I'd never been
Till you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now-ow
Flew me to places I'd never been
Now I'm lyin' on the cold hard ground!
Aahh oohh, trouble, trouble, trouble 
Aahh oohh, trouble, trouble, trouble

Bridge

G* Bm*
And the saddest fear, comes creepin' in
G*
That you never loved me or her,
A* A* A
Or anyone, or anything, yeah yeah

Chorus

I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now-ow
Flew me to places I'd never been (never been)
Till you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in (you were right there)
So shame on me now-ow
Flew me to places I'd never been
Now I'm lyin' on the cold hard ground!
Aahh oohh, trouble, trouble, trouble 
Aahh oohh, trouble, trouble, trouble

Outro

I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
D N.C.
trouble, trouble, trouble
