8 Measure Break: G C G

Verse 2:        Remember when we didn't have a dime between us
                You took my hand and said we don't need much
                Just as long as we're together we would be fine
                Now we've acquired
                All I thought would please you
                I gave everything you know that I could
                And still you're tellin' me you're not satisfied
                So take everything we have if it makes ya happy
                But darlin' let me say before I leave

Chorus:

End:            These sticks and stones may break me
                But the words you said just tore my heart in two
