oh the strain on her heart
G6 Fmaj7
she believed a lying blackheart
G6 Fmaj7
painted with promises
Am
then he left her on the floor
G
with only the mirror to curse
Am G
should have known better
Am G
should have known better
Am G
should have known oh oh
F
and how she cried how she cried
G
how she cried how she cried
etc.
(repeat F G until end)
