Intro

[Verse 1]
G F
Some girls you meet seem so complete
G# D#
Like they don't need nothing from you
G Fm
They're out to show you they don't want to know you
G# D#
When deep inside they do
G F
Well, this girl didn't want me or anyone else
G# D#
She was alone, thought I'd give it a try
G F
I was a young bull stomping in the field
G# (D# E)
I saw red when she walked by
[Chorus]
A# (G D)
Love has taken its toll, love has
(F A) (G D)
Love has taken, taken its toll, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
G F
I had to think fast, I watched her walk past
G# D#
I knew I would have my way
G F
So I swaggered up, I mean I staggered up
G# D#
But I didn't have a damn thing to say
G F
Now, two handed strategy always works well for me
G# D#
So I slipped my hands around her waist
G F
I swore it was the right move, feeling so smooth
G# (D# E)
Till she backhanded me across my face
[Chorus]
A# (G D)
Love has taken its toll, love has
(F A) (Gm D)
Love has taken, taken its toll, oh yeah

[Verse 3]
G F
To make a long story short, she finally got caught
G# D#
I had to tell her enough is enough
G
She said, "You're just what I needed", and boy
F G#
She nearly pleaded with me not to be too rough
[Chorus]
A# (G D)
Love has taken its toll, love has
(F A) (Gm D)
Love has taken, taken its toll, oh yeah
A# (G D)
Love has taken its toll, love has
(F A) (Gm D)
Love has taken, taken its toll, oh yeah
A# (G D)
Love has taken its toll, love has
(F A) (Gm D)
Love has taken, taken its toll, oh yeah
