capo on second fret

intro
A  D  A  D  A  E  A

A                                  D
You were standin' at my front door
 E                     A   D   E
When I came home tonight
          A                             D
And I could tell by the look you gave me
                      E  
You were needin' my advice
             D                                E  
You say you want more out of life than he can give you
                           A     D
As a tear rolls down your face
         A
But girl, I've seen the way he looks at you
      E                                      A       E
And I know someone who'd gladly take your place.

[Chorus:]
           A
If I were you
    D                 A
I'd run back home tonight
           D               A
Tell him everything's all right
      E
Yeah, I know what I'd do
          A
If I were you
     D            A
I'd never let him go
     D               A
I'd have someone to hold
               E
My whole life through.
            A    D   A   D  A   E
If I were you.



You shouldn't think you're missin' out on something
Because you wear a wedding band
'Cause I can't seem to find somebody
Who wants more than just a one night stand
You know this single life I'm livin'
Ain't all it's cracked up to be
So you've come to the wrong place
If what you want is sympathy.

[Chorus:]
If I were you
I'd run back home tonight
Tell him everything's all right
Yeah, I know what I'd do
If I were you
I'd never let him go
I'd have someone to hold
My whole life through.

[Chorus:]
If I were you
I'd run back home tonight
Tell him everything's all right
Yeah, I know what I'd do
If I were you
I'd never let him go
I'd have someone to hold
My whole life through.

If I were you...
