A
For your poison love has stained the life blood
E
In my heart and soul dear
A
And I know my life will never be the same
All my pleadings have all been in vain
E
For you and you alone dear
A
And I know that you are guilty of the same
Into each life a love is born for one
E
And one alone dear
A
The love I chose was surely not for me
A
For your poison love has stained the life blood
E
In my heart and soul dear
A
And I know our love was never meant to be
A
For your poison love has stained the life blood
E
In my heart and soul dear
A
And I know my life will never be the same
All my pleadings have all been in vain
E
For you and you alone dear
A
And I know that you are guilty of the same
SOLO in A
then SOLO in D
A
Sill my heart cries out for you
E
And you alone my darling
A
It makes me never ever let you go
A
But my pleadings has all been in vain
E
For you and you alone dear
A
And my better judgement tells me to say no
A
For your poison love has stained the life blood
E
In my heart and soul dear
A
And I know my life will never be the same
All my pleadings have all been in vain
E
For you and you alone dear
A
And I know that you are guilty of the same
