you oughta see me now. 
  Bb 
I bragged too long that your love was strong, 
        F        C7      F   C7 
There'd never be another guy. 
    F7                                           C Gm7 C7

of that there was no doubt.. 
F7     Bb                                   C  Gm7 C7 
Sounds empty now that half my life's walked out.
