INTRO on Bb

When I first laid eyes on you
  Bb
I swore I'd do anything

Let you clean me up, fix me up
        C7                 F
Just to get you to wear my wedding ring
Bb             Bb7
Now I'm having second thoughts
        Eb               Eo7
And I'm writing you this letter
        Bb        F/A      Gm      Gm/D
Cuz I'm scared to tell you to your face
       C7       F      Bb
That I like the old me better

C7                    F
Didn't take crap from anyone
         Bb             Bb7

The day we got together
