Take a Look at My Heart

A                     E
I seen my old lady's boyfriend;
A                            E
He don't look nothing like me.
A                      E
'Cept for a bit of confusion -
A                       E
Same kind she laid on me.


D              E                    A
You don't know what you're getting into;
D           E           A
She's gonna tear you apart.
D            E               A
You're gonna places I have been to;
D      E            A
Take a look at my heart.
G      A            D
Take a look at my heart.

You're pro'bly sending her flowers;
And talking to her on the phone.
You're gonna get it together;
And find yourself all alone.

You don't know what you're getting into;
She's gonna tear you apart.
You're gonna places I have been to;
Take a look at my heart.
Take a look at my heart.

F#                                    D
Do you think you can be her lover and not become her fool?
F#7                             G              E
Do you think that you are the exception to the rule?

You're gonna hate all her girlfriends;
And everything that they say.
You ask me how do I know this;
They come around every day.

You don't know what you're getting into;
She's gonna tear you apart.
You're gonna places I have been to;
Take a look at my heart.
Take a look at my heart.

F# - D

F#7 - G - E

I seen my old lady's boyfriend;
He don't look nothing like me.
'Cept for a bit of confusion -
Same kind she laid on me.

You don't know what you're getting into;
She's gonna tear you apart.
You're gonna places I have been to;
Take a look at my heart.
Take a look at my heart.
Take a look at my heart.
