If you knew what I know, you wouldn't go to see her.



Bm                                    Em                  G

And least of all believe her when she says that she wants you.







Em                  G                 C            G

You're just another puppet. She's not even keeping score.



        C                                 G  D

And the lazy way she cheats you leaves me co-ld.



             Em                          G                  C       G

She'll laugh about it with her petty friends, but you don't know.





Em                   G       Em                 G      

Cuz if you knew what I know, you wouldn't go to see her.



Bm                                    Em                  G

And least of all believe her when she says that she wants you.

Em                     G             C                  G

She spends her daddy's money and she drives her daddy's car.



           C                                 G   D        

And what's crazy is the way you think that's sty-le.



            Em                          G          C           G       

And all the while my heart is breaking, you're not even on her mind.









Em                     G     Em                G

Cuz if you knew what I know, then you wouldn't leave me.



             Bm                                                      Em      

You wouldn't turn away from my love, it's what you said that you believed in.



Bm              Em      C                                  G

I say this as a friend: You'll be the poor boy in the end.
