Tom: Em
C G (2x)
[Verse 1]
G C G
She's got a tattoo on her shoulder
G C G
it's a blue eye with a tear.
G C G
She got it drinkin' one night,
D/F#
when her thinkin' wasn't clear.
C G
He was short but good looking,
G C G
rugged green eyes and animal charm.
C
That silver-tongued devil
G D/F#
inspired that love scar on her arm.
[Chorus]
D/F# G D/F#
He said if I could be a tear rollin' down your cheek,
Em7 C
and die on your lips my life would be complete.
G D/F#
The words that he said really hit her in the heart,
C D
so now she’s walking ‘round
D C
with a love scar.
[Verse 2]
G C G C
She was just another notch on his snake skin belt,
C G
and now she knows
C G
so she hides it under a long sleeved blouse
D/F#
so it won't show.
C G
She once thought it was beautiful,
C G
But it's no longer a work of art.
C
That ink needle didn't hurt
G D/F#
but now she’s got a love scar on her heart.
[Bridge]
B7
If only she knew then
Em
what she knows now.
A
If his mouth is open
A7 Am Am7 D7
lies are coming out.
[Chorus]
D/F# G D/F#
He said if I could be a tear rollin' down your cheek,
Em7 C
and die on your lips my life would be complete.
G D/F#
The words that he said really hit her in the heart,
C D
so now she’s walking ‘round
D C
with a love scar.
