lyrics

WELL YOU TELL ME THAT YOU CARE, BUT NOW YOU’RE GONE
YOU GOT ME CRYING
NO USE DENYING
YOU DONE ME WRONG.

IF I COULD LOOK INSIDE YOUR HEART, MAYBE I
COULD FIND A REASON
WHY YOU ARE LEAVING
ME ALL ALONE.

CHO: WELL YOU KNOW IT’S NOT SO
WHEN YOU SAY YOU TRIED, YOU KNOW YOU LIED
I DIDN’T DO ONE WRONG THING TO YOU-- (STOP)
WON’T YOU TELL ME BABY, WHY, YOU WENT & LEFT
ME HERE SO LONELY,
I MISS YOU ONLY,
I LOVE YOU SO.

(BREAK – STOP)

DID I EVER MAKE YOU SAD SO YOU’D BE MAD
ENOUGH TO HURT ME,
& DESERT ME
FOR SO LONG.

WELL YOU’RE TELLIN EVERYONE WHAT YOU DONE
YOU THINK IT’S FUNNY
WELL LISTEN HONEY
YOU DONE ME WRONG. ( CHO / 1X BRK / CHO / OUT W/GTR)
