Her eyes tell the story too 
  Em      G
many nights alone
G         C         D   G       
He always takes for granted

man that guy's a fool
C        C/B    Em              
Can't he see he holds a 
    D
priceless jewel
           G         C           
If it were me I'd be thanking my 
Em    D
lucky stars
           G         C           
If it were me I'd be holding her 
Em    D
in my arms

her when he stays out 'til dawn
G            C        D    G   
The stuff he tries to sell her
