Intro: 2x C G Dm F C G6 C G6 C

1.
C        G         Dm         F    C       G6        C    G6 C   
oh lady fair your stranglin� hair ribbons round my tongue
C        G             Dm           F     C           G6           C   C7    
I try to speak but my thoughts grow weak for all the yarns you�ve spun
   G                  Dm   F    C       G6        C   G6
I heard them say that evil may walk in beauty�s shoes
C            G        Dm      F   C              G6     C  G6 C
well if ever I could love myself then I�ll stop loving you

2.
C        G        Dm    F   C              G6        C    G6 C
were you out the other night flirting with all my friends
C            G      Dm     F  C         G          C   C7
I heard you told a joke or two with my name at the end
G            Dm      F   C                 G6     C
hurry home I sit in stone tell me it just ain�t true
C            G        Dm      F   C              G     C   G6 C
well if ever I could love myself then I�ll stop loving you

C            G         Dm   F  C            G6        C   G6 C
when you�re gone I�ll carry on it was never meant to last
C                G     Dm    F  C            G        C   C7
and I�d much prefer to sit alone and drink about the past
   G             Dm       F  C         G          C
or so I say some how some way till I believe its true
C            G        Dm      F   C              G6     C   G6 C
well if ever I could love myself then I�ll stop loving you

Outro: C G Dm F C G C C7 G Dm F C G6 C G6 C G Dm F C G6 C
