Intro
D D
[Verse 1]
F# E
Some girls you meet seem so complete
G D
Like they don't need nothing from you
F# Em
They're out to show you they don't want to know you
G D
When deep inside they do
F# E
Well, this girl didn't want me or anyone else
G D
She was alone, thought I'd give it a try
F# E
I was a young bull stomping in the field
G (D E)
I saw red when she walked by
[Chorus]
A (F# D)
Love has taken its toll, love has
(E A) (F# D)
Love has taken, taken its toll, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
F# E
I had to think fast, I watched her walk past
G D
I knew I would have my way
F# E
So I swaggered up, I mean I staggered up
G D
But I didn't have a damn thing to say
F# E
Now, two handed strategy always works well for me
G D
So I slipped my hands around her waist
F# E
I swore it was the right move, feeling so smooth
G (D E)
Till she backhanded me across my face
[Chorus]
A (F# D)
Love has taken its toll, love has
(E A) (F#m D)
Love has taken, taken its toll, oh yeah
[Sax Solo]
G E G E (Bm B) D
[Verse 3]
F# E
To make a long story short, she finally got caught
G D
I had to tell her enough is enough
F#
She said, "You're just what I needed", and boy
E G
She nearly pleaded with me not to be too rough
[Chorus]
A (F# D)
Love has taken its toll, love has
(E A) (F#m D)
Love has taken, taken its toll, oh yeah
A (F# D)
Love has taken its toll, love has
(E A) (F#m D)
Love has taken, taken its toll, oh yeah
A (F# D)
Love has taken its toll, love has
(E A) (F#m D)
Love has taken, taken its toll, oh yeah
