G                           
There goes my ol' girlfriend, 
           D
there's another diamond ring
         Em                  
And, uh, all those late night 
      D       C
promises I guess they don't mean a 
thing
   G                           D
So baby what's the story? Did ya… 
find another man?
      Em
Is it easy to sleep in the bed that 
we made?
D           C                    
When you don't look back I guess 
                              D
the feeling starts to fade away
  G                                
I used to feel yo' fire but now 
    Em
it's cold inside
D            C
And you're back on the street like 
you didn't miss a beat, yeah

        C

    G                              
You spent me up like money, then ya…
D

       Em
It was easy to keep all yo' lies in 
disguise
 D          C
'Cause you had me in deep with the 
devil in your eyes
