[E] [G] [F]
[C] [F]
Oh, the love you promised would be mine [Bb] forever
[F] I would have got my bottom [C] dollar on
[F] Well, it sure turned out to be short [Bb] forever
Just [F] once I turned [C] my back and you [F] were gone
From now on all my friends are gonna [Bb] be strangers
Ronnie Reno, [F] I'm all through
Ever trusting [C] anyone
The [F] only thing I can count on now [Bb] is my fingers
I [F] was a fool believing [C] in you
Now [F] you are gone

[C] [F]
It amazes me not knowing [Bb] any better
[F] Than to think I had a love that would [C] be true
Well, [F] I should be taken out, [Bb] tied and feathered
To [F] have let [C] myself be taken in [F] by you
[Dm] [Gm] From [F] now on all my friends are gonna be [Bb] strangers
I'm [F] all through ever trusting [C] anyone
The only [F] thing I can count on now [Bb] is my fingers
I was a [F] fool believing [C] in you
Now you [F] are gone
I was a fool [C] believing in you
Now you [F] are [G] gone
