[Verse 1]
        C       G       D       C G
I never knew if I could make it
D            C       G     D    C G
  I'd gotten used to bein' blue
D        C      G      D        C G
  For so long I had to fake it
D               C       G    D
  But I finally made it over you


[Pre-Chorus]
                  G    G
But then here you come
                           D
Actin' like you were never gone
                   G
You're just havin' fun
                           A
You must think I'm made of stone


[Chorus]
N.C.                          D     C G
Why can't you leave my heart alone
D              C         G       D  C G
  If you can't stay then just go on
D                C          G      A    A
  If I'm not the one you'll always want
N.C.                          D    D  D  D
Why can't you leave my heart alone


[Verse 2]
D           C       G         D    C G
  I used to like to play with fire
D         C       G       D      C G
  I was attracted to your flame
D         C      G    D    C G
  But now I have no desire
D              C        G      D
  To play that same old cryin' game
          G
I'm doin' fine
                             D
I've got my feet back on the ground
           G
Made up my mind
                            A
Till you start comin' back around


[Chorus]
N.C.                          D     C G
Why can't you leave my heart alone
D              C         G       D  C G
  If you can't stay then just go on
D                C          G      A    A
  If I'm not the one you'll always want
                              D    D
Why can't you leave my heart alone


[Bridge]
G
  I'm not a toy you can play with at will
     D
Then throw me away once you get your thrill
G
  You better watch yourself, the things that you do:
A                                            D  C G
  Someone could turn the tables on you-ou-ou-ou

[Pre-Chorus]
D                 G
Oh, Well here you come
                           D
Actin' like you were never gone
                   G
You're just havin' fun
                           A
You must think I'm made of stone


[Chorus]
N.C.                          D     C G
Why can't you leave my heart alone
D              C         G       D  C G
  If you can't stay then just go on
D                C          G      A    A
  If I'm not the one you'll always want
N.C.                          D    C G  D C
Why can't you leave my heart alone
G         D    C G  D
Leave it alone
C           G   D    C G D  C G D
  This poor old heart
