  G
I believed every word that woman told me 
                                  C
Right up to the time she said goodbye 
                                    G
I couldn't see the truth when she'd hold me 
                D               G
Although it was right before my eyes 
         C           Bb          G
        I'm not the first to go blind 
                                            D
        Or the first to ignore the warning signs 
           G
        I may have been a fool 
                          C
        When it comes to you 
                         D           G
        But I'm not the first to go blind 
     G
Well Lord if I had only seen it coming 
                                     C
Then I could have stepped out of the way 
                                          G
But her good lovin' kept my wild thoughts runnin' 
                       D               G
And I know that's what took my sight away 
 
Repeat Chorus Twice 
           G
        I may have been a fool 
                          C
        When it comes to you 
                         D           G
        But I'm not the first to go blind
