[Verse 1]
G
I fell in love with you, and I really meant it

G Em D
I was so happy oh…. Lucky In love with you

Now your mood has changed, back to the same old thing
C
Your poutin, doubtin, run’n round on me again
G Em
I don’t know too much baby but, this much I know about you
[Chorus]

You wouldn’t know love if you fell in it

You didn’t break my heart this time, but you dang sure bent it

G Em
I should have known by then, some people never change

And the truth is baby, you never loved me
