B
You could've had me for a nickel
C#
You could've held me for so long
F#
You could've loved just a little
                          B
You could've had me for a song

I won't throw good love after bad
       C#
'Cause I done all that before
F#
You know you had for a little while
                      B
But you don't have me anymore


B
You took me for a loser
        C#
And you played games with my head
           F#
But it was almost worth, darlin'
                    B
But I'd rather live instead
You were sure to please me
You were my main squeeze
        C#
But I'm walking out the door
             F#
You know you had for a little while
                      B
But you don't have me anymore

F#                                 E            B
Now if I say that I don't love you, I would be lying
F#
But I say no, oh no I don't
           D#m        E            F#
If it will keep myself from crying, uh uh uh uh


             B
You could've held me just a little
             C#
You could've held me all my life
           F#
I would've be oh so devoted
                          B
You could've had me for a wife
Oh I told you once and I told you twice
         C#
But this time I'm moving on
           F#
And if you don't believe I'm leaving, sugar
E                  B
Count the days I'm gone
  
          F#
Oh I said one, two, three and four
          E      B
You don't have me anymore
        F#
I said, oo, oo, oo-oo, oo
          E          B
You don't have me anymore

          F#                       Break
Oh I said one, two, three and four
                            B      
'Cause you don't have me anymore
