G                    C       G              C
Her eyes tell the st ory too many nights al one
   G                C             Em               D
He always takes for granted she's waiting there at home
C                        G        C                G
He treats her like she's nothing, man that guy's a fool
Am              C                 Dsus  D
Can't he see he holds a priceless jewel

      C    G         C                 D
If it were me I'd be thanking my lucky stars
      C    G         C                 D
If it were me I'd be holding her in my arms
      Em         Bm                    C
She'd never ever wonder what true love means

     G                 C              G                 C
I've heard the lies he tells her when he stays out 'til dawn
    G                 C           Em            D
The stuff he tries to sell her no body buys for long
C                 G               C                    G
She deserves much better than the crumbs he throws her way
  Am                   C                Dsus  D
I think it's time some body set him str aight

      C    G         C                 D

If it were me

     Em              Bm            C                 G
Some day she's gonna realize she's worth a whole lot more
F                                  Dsus D
I'll be right there waiting at her door
