Capo 1
[Verse]
Last Dnight, she made it plain, Gshe didn't want Cme
DToday I woke later and Aalone
DTomorrow I'll be turnin' to the Gbottle
ETonight I'll be cold and all Aalone.
[Chorus]
DShe only broke my heart Lord not my Gspirit
DShe only took my body not my Asoul
My Dskin still burns in places where she Gtouched me
EAnd when she touched me Lord I lost my self-Acontrol.G  F#m  E  
[Verse]
DWhen She's Got Me Where She Wants Me
She don't Gwant meD  
I'm just another game she likes to Aplay
I Ddon't think I can make it through toGmorrow
I Ealmost never made it through Atoday.
[Chorus]
She Dsure knew how to love me when she Gloved me
DWhen I was weak she always came on Astrong
She Dknew just what it took to drive me Gcrazy
And Eshe knew how much I hate to be AaloneG  F#m  E
