This is my first time I think it is correct  
Capo 1 

intr: A5 , E5 , D5 , E5 

                              A5 
People, I've been misled 
               D5 
and I've been afraid 
                               A5 
I've been hit in the head  
         D5 
and left for dead 
           A5 
I've abused 
                         D5 
and I've been accused 
               A5                       D5 
been refused a piece of bread 


                   A5 
But I ain't never 
            D5 
in my life before 
                          A5 
seen so many love affairs 
                       D5 
go wrong as I do today 


                         A5     (studder mute) 
I want you to STOP  
                                 D5 
and find out what's wrong 
          A5 
get it right 
                            D5 
or just leave love alone 


                       B5                     E5 
Chorus:  Because the love you save today 
               D5                   A5 
maybe will-l-l-l be your own 


E5 , E5 , E5 

                                A5 
I've been pushed around 
                 D5       
I've been lost and found 
A5 
I've been given til sundown  
D5 
to get out of town 
 A5 
I've been taken outside 
 D5 
and I've been brutalized 
 A5                                                          D5             
and I've had to always be the one to smile and apologize 


             A5 
But I ain't never 
           D5 
in my life before 
                         A5 
seen so many love affairs 
                        D5 
go wrong as I do today 


        A5  (studder mute) 
So Stop 
                          D5 
find out what's wrong 
           A5 
get it right 
                                 D5 
or please leave love alone 


                        B5                  E5 
Chorus:  Because the love you save today 
                   D5                  A5 
maybe will-l-l-l be your own
