I could have told you, she'd hurt you 
 D9    G9   G    D7/9/F#  G/F# D9  B7   Em 
She'd love you a  while,  then   desert you 
   C   C/B     Am7   Am7/G  D9           Am7  Cdim G 
If on - ly you asked,       I could have told you  so

And soon it's  over and done with 
  D9   G9    G     D7/9/F#  G/F#  D9  B7   Em
