CGettin’ even has got me G7nowhere but Clonesome
I’ve Fnever been this G7blue that’s for Fsure
You can bet I’d be forgettin’ gettin’ Ceven
If I ever get G7another chance with Cher
Last night I saw my G7baby out Cdancing
With an Fold sweetheart she G7used to know Cbefore
This Fjealous heart of mine starts Crunnin’ overA7time
FFiguring out a way to G7even up the Cscore
CGettin’ even has got me G7nowhere but Clonesome
I’ve Fnever been this G7blue that’s for Fsure
You can bet I’d be forgettin’ gettin’ Ceven
If I ever get G7another chance with Cher
Well I walked right up I G7called her name I Ctold her

You can bet I’d be forgettin’ gettin’ Ceven
If I ever get G7another chance with Cher
If I ever get G7another chance with Cher
If I ever get G7another chance with Cher
