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

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