          Em                        D     C
 And, uh, all those late night promises I guess they don`t mean a thing.
    G                           D 
 So baby what`s the story? Did you  find another man ?

 life to the toss of the dice?,  Tell me what it takes to let you go,  yeah.
 
 Girl before I met you I was F.I.N.E, fine
 But your love made me a prisoner, yeah my heart`s been doing time.
 You spent me up like money then you hung me out to dry.
 It was easy to keep all your lies in disguise,
 `Cause you had me in deep with the devil in your eyes.
