I got something to say that might cause you pain,
If I catch you talking to that boy again,
G D
I'm gonna let you down, and leave you flat.
A7 G D
Because I told you befo--ore you can't do that.
D
Well it's the second time I caught you talking to him,
Do I have to tell you one more time I think it's a sin.
G D
I think I'll let you down, and leave you flat.

Because I told you befo--ore you can't do that.
F#7 Bm Em F#m D
Everybody's gree--een, 'cause I'm the one who won your love,

But if they'd see--een, you talking that way, they'd laugh in my face.
D
So please listen to me if you wanna stay mine,
I can't help my feelings I go out of my mind,

I'm gonna let you down, and leave you flat.

Because I told you befo--ore you can't do that.
