[Fm] [Bb]
[Bbm] I
[Bb] can't tell because it's plain to see I can't tell the way you look at me
The

[Bb] Yeah, I can [Eb] understand
[Bb] I [F] can tell, [Eb] I can tell I [Bb] [Db] [Eb] know you don't love me no [Ab] more
[Bb] No more, no more I asked your mama and your papa too
What blood can a poor girl do?
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] Now you've been running with that heartbreak of cherry brown

When I knock on the door they say that you ain't home
[Eb] Your sister let me in, she said I could wait
When

Now [F] I can tell, [Eb] I can tell [Bb] I know [Eb] you don't love me no more
[Bb] Now baby I can give you
[Eb] [Bb] romance If [Ab] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] you give me another chance
I [Eb] might even cook your food and wash your clothes
