[Dm] [G] [C] I [Am] was the one [F] who taught [G] her to [C] kiss the [Am] way that she kisses you [G] now
[C] And you know the [F] way she touches your [C] cheek, well I [G] taught her how
[C] I [Am] was the one who [F] taught [G] her to cry [C] when [Am] she watched you wonder [G] astride the moon
[C] The sight of the [F] tears drives you out of your [Eb] mind, [C] [G]
I taught [C] her so well
[F] And then one day [Fm] I had my [C] love [G] as perfect [C] as could be
She [D] lived, she loved, she laughed, she cried, and it was all [G] for me
I'll [C] [Am] never [F] know, I [G] taught her to lie [C] now [Am] that it's over [G] and done
[C] Who learned a lesson [F] when she broke [Gb] my [C] heart?
[G] I was [C] the one

[C] I'll [Am] never know, [F]
I taught [G] her to lie [C] now [Am] that it's over [G] and done
