The lady who drinks at the pub on my street,
G Em D G
 She goes up there for sherry and something to eat, 
G C9 G
She told me a tale of love in her life,
G Em D G 
That the man that she loved wouldn't make her his wife.
C G 
She told me "My boy when you fall for a girl,
Em D 
make sure that she falls for you",
C D Em G 
"I'm sure as the sun and I'm sure as the moon,
C D G
that one can't be loving for two".

A man drove me home in a taxi last night, 
G Em D G
A man whose two kids were his only delight.
G C9 G 
His old lady dragged him on down to the court,
G Em D G
 And now he drives taxis to make child support. 

C G
He told me, "My boy when you fall for a girl,
Em D
 make sure that she falls for you",
C D Em G 
"I'm sure as the sun and I'm sure as the moon,
C D G
that one can't be loving for two".

 Am   G  D x2
I should know this...

 G C9 G
I told them a tale, even though I'm still young,
G Em D G 
About how much it hurt, about how much it stung,
G C9 G
 I once knew a girl, and I thought it was sure...
G Em D G 
But our love couldn't be what it was anymore. 
C G
So if you're in love, and you hear what I sing,
Em D
make sure that they're loving you,
C D Em G 
"I'm sure as the sun and I'm sure as the moon,
C D Em
 that one can't be loving for two".
C D Em G 
"Yes, I'm sure as the sun and I'm sure as the moon,
C D G
 that one can't be loving for two".
