A
Baby, my baby you accuse me
                                D
Of flirting and hurting you no end
                    A
You say baby I'm a cheater
            D          E            A   E
You oughta know that cheaters never win

[Chorus]
A
Because it takes one to know one who will hurt you
                                         E
It takes one to know one who'll make you blue
    D            E                    A
It takes one to know one like I know you
G                       A
You're my kind hold my hand,
G                   A
Use your mind understand

[Verse 2]
A
Baby, my baby don't blame me
                               D
For playing and saying things unkind
                      A
You think baby I'm a loser
            D        E                A    E
But I could win if you were close behind me

[Chorus]
A
Because it takes one to know one who will love you
                                          E
It takes one to know one who will cry for you
     D           E                   A
It takes one to know one like I know you
G                       A
You're my kind hold my hand,
G                    A
Use your mind understand

[Outro]
A                              E
Baby, baby we're birds of a feather,
                          A
Baby, baby we'll live together
                        E
Baby I'm yours you are mine
         E
And it takes one to know one,
     A            F#m
It takes one to know one
         D           E                A  D A
Yes it takes one to know one every time
