G Well I knew she belonged to someone else at the time D7 But lonely lookin' women are a weakness of mine So I bought all she said about the love he never gave her And figured I just love her some and do us both a favor G Just as I got up to leave he walked through the door G7 C And I guess I thought he'd be surprised D7 But he looked at me as if to say he's been there before And he offered me these words to the wise Chorus: G He said you know she's a cheater son But you believe that you're the one D7 Who's got a lot of what it takes to change her And I've no doubt that you can get her You ain't much but that don't matter G Nothing suits her better than a stranger And the stranger man the better And the chances are she'll set her G7 C Eyes on you the next time she goes slumming D7 So you sit back and wait your turn boy You got lots of time to learn boy G Cool it while you can your time's coming Well it happens that in time it happened just like he said D7 And soon enough her shoes were setting under my bed And I'll confess I did my best to prove that man had lied But nothing short of suicide could keep her satisfied G So buddy losing her to you was just a matter of time G7 C And it's her time for finding something new D7 Nothing I can say is gonna make you change your mind So I'll just give the same advice to you Repeat Chorus: D7 G I said cool it while you can cause your time's coming
