A 
For your poison love has stained the life blood 
                E 
In my heart and soul dear 
                                     A 
And I know my life will never be the same 
     
All my pleadings have all been in vain 
                E  
For you and you alone dear 
                                       A 
And I know that you are guilty of the same 
 
Into each life a love is born for one 
        E 
And one alone dear 
                                     A 
The love I chose was surely not for me 
A 
For your poison love has stained the life blood 
                E 
In my heart and soul dear 
                                       A 
And I know our love was never meant to be 
A 
For your poison love has stained the life blood 
                E 
In my heart and soul dear 
                                     A 
And I know my life will never be the same 
     
All my pleadings have all been in vain 
                E  
For you and you alone dear 
                                       A 
And I know that you are guilty of the same 
       
SOLO  in  A   
 
then SOLO in D 
 
A 
Sill my heart cries out for you 
                 E 
And you alone my darling 
                                A 
It makes me  never ever let you go 
A 
But my pleadings has all been in vain 
                 E 
For you and you alone dear 
                                        A 
And my better judgement tells me to say no 
A 
For your poison love has stained the life blood 
                E 
In my heart and soul dear 
                                     A 
And I know my life will never be the same 
     
All my pleadings have all been in vain 
                E  
For you and you alone dear 
                                       A 
And I know that you are guilty of the same
