G                    G7          C
I met her we fell in love and we parted

             G                                D7
The same old story that a million tongues can tell

      G                 G7         C
Cause she turned out to be jealous hearted

             G              D7              G
And life for me and for her became a living hell


                            G7           C
Oh Lord I'm standing at the doorsteps to heaven

            G                        D7
Cause she's asking me to try it once again

         G                    G7               C
One step would take me to the arms of my sweet darling

        G             D7              G
But the door of jealousy won't let me in


                            G7                C
Oh yes I tried Lord knows I tried to make her happy

        G                               D7
But the eyes of jealous love are always blind

      G         G7               C
And I knew if I hung around much longer

            G              D7               G
That one or both of us was sure to lose our mind


                            G7           C
Oh Lord I'm standing at the doorsteps to heaven

            G                        D7
Cause she's asking me to try it once again

         G                    G7               C
One step would take me to the arms of my sweet angel

        G             D7              G
But the door of jealousy won't let me in
