A augmentedA   C majorC  D MajorD
 Late last night
       C majorC   A augmentedA
I get a call from a so-called friend
       C majorC    D MajorD
He wouldn't give his name
         C majorC      A augmentedA
Says he saw you with another man
         C majorC  D MajorD
Feels like seventeen years
        C majorC  A augmentedA
It's only seventeen days
     C majorC    D MajorD
Since I saw the real you
        C majorC
And I let you walk away

Verse:
A augmentedA     C majorC  D MajorD
 You left me broken
     C majorC   A augmentedA
You left me stranded
       C majorC     D MajorD
The way you play this game of love
      C majorC     A augmentedA
It's just plain underhanded
      C majorC   D MajorD
I spent a lot of time
      C majorC    A augmentedA
And I spent all my money
       C majorC   D MajorD
Don't want no other fool
      C majorC    A augmentedA G+G D/F#D/F#
To put his hands on you
 A augmentedA            G+G D/F#D/F# A augmentedA A augmentedA G+G D/F#D/F#
Who you been talking to?

Yeah who you been walking with?

Verse 2:
A augmentedA      C majorC   D MajorD
 They said I was playing with fire
     C majorC   A augmentedA
I knew I had to take a chance
     C majorC    D MajorD
I had to take you higher
   C majorC   A augmentedA
To a new experience
      C majorC   D MajorD
But little did I know
   C majorC   A augmentedA
I'd never get that far
          C majorC    D MajorD
Girl, you know you put on quite a show
        C majorC   A augmentedA  G+G D/F#D/F#
You're going to be a star
