G6                Fmaj7
oh the strain on her heart

she believed a lying blackheart
G6               Fmaj7
painted with promises

then he left her on the floor
G
with only the mirror to curse
Am             G
should have known better
Am                G
should have known better
Am                G
should have known    oh   oh
F
and how she cried  how she cried
G
how she cried how she cried

etc.
