i am playing this by ear. it sounds right to me. hope it helps.

A

I once had a love,

D

A true and lasting love,

A

But the fool in me,

E

Came out one night.

A

And with her loving eyes,

D

She saw right through my lies.

A

And she changed the night

E A

I stepped across the line.

A

I should've watched that first step.

D

It was a mighty big step.

A E

When i started stepping out of line.

A

Though she's still loving me,

D

It's not the way it used to be.

A E A

That first step did something to her mind.

A

I watched her slip away.

D

A little more everyday.

A

For my conscience

E

Couldn't live with all that shame.

A

Now she's growing colder

D

Since the day i told her.

A

And the love we had

E A

Will never be the same.

Repeat chorus

D A E
