	        A 
I once had a love, 
                D 
A true and lasting love, 
            A 
But the fool in me, 
                      E 
Came out one night. 
                   A 
And with her loving eyes, 
                     D 
She saw right through my lies. 
              A 
And she changed the night 
  E                          A   
I stepped across the line. 
 
A 
I should've watched that first step. 
                       D 
It was a mighty big step. 
          A                                E  
When i started stepping out of line. 
                           A 
Though she's still loving me, 
                          D           
It's not the way it used to be. 
        A                 E                      A 
That first step did something to her mind. 
 
A 
I watched her slip away. 
                   D 
A little more everyday. 
            A 
For my conscience 
                                    E 
Couldn't live with all that shame. 
                             A 
Now she's growing colder 
                       D 
Since the day i told her. 
             A 
And the love we had 
       E                A            
Will never be the same. 
 
  
Repeat chorus 
 
        D                        A                      E
