And  the arms of the first man you see
D              D7             G
Another victim added to your list dear

You're no longer a sweetheart to me

Until a true love I shall find
        D7                   G
For you lived a lie from the start dear

You?re no longer a sweetheart of mine
   A                        D
Go back to the bar down the street dear
    A                           D
And stay with your honky-tonk kind
   D7                             G
Go back to the life you've been living
          A                      D
You're no longer a sweetheart of mine
   D7                             G
Go back to the life you've been living
          A                      D
You're no longer a sweetheart of mine
