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