Verse 1 (guitar plays octave F# throughout):

        F#      E      B
        Never liked nobody
        F#           E         B
        That's been mean to me
        F#           E             B
        I've got a heart full of stone
        F#     E           B
        And I hate the misery
        F#    E         B
        Then you came along
        F#          E      B
           Into my life
        F#   E         B
        Destroying my mind
                         F#         E      B
        Mounting up the toil and strife

        I'm a fool for you
                   B           D#m/A#

              Guess I'll always be

                      F#           E  B   F#  E  B
        'Cause I'm a fool for you

Verse 2:

        It's a doggone shame
        Knowin' you don't love me
        You go on and use me
        So continuously
        I don't know why
        I love you like I do
        When you're breaking my heart
        And you know it's true

[repeat chorus]
