Em D/F# A/C# D A
Em D/F# A/C#
Oooh . . .
 
[Verse 1]
Em D/F#
You said it, but didn't really mean it,
A/C# D
One too many times,
Em
If I'd been looking,

I would have seen it comin',

Could have saved myself some time.
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]

You say this time it's different,

But that don't make it right,

You're just giving me another reason,
F D
To look you in the eye and say,

Oh, it took a while, but I'm finding my way,

That was yesterday,

Oh baby, you can say you love me all you can,

I'm afraid you got the wrong man,

Oh, you got the wrong man.
 
[Verse 2]
Em D/F#
You had it, and I need it,
A/C# D
More than just your time,
Em D/F#
You played it, and I bought it,
A/C#
But you would've hurt in time.
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C
Slowly but surely,
G
You drove me out of my mind,
A
But it's my turn baby,
F D
So don't be surprised,
D
When you hear me sayin'.

Sooner or later you’ll understand,
