G
Gather round I'm gonna tell a story
       C                               G
That I hope will teach a lesson to you all

I'll lay it out so there won't be a doubt
C                                G    
How I brought my kingdom to it's fall

                        C
Cause I've cheated on a good woman's love
                                     G
I didn't know it would turn out this way
                       C
Lesson one is when you start stepping out
          D7                    G
You gotta start learning how to pay

 
I paid the price by lying to the ones
     C                           G
That deep inside I knew I needed most

I lied and then I went and lied again
C                                     G
Now in my dreams I'm haunted by these ghosts


When she found out I was just about to tell her
    C                     G
All about the evils of my ways

But it's too late cause when I say I love her
C                                 G
She don't believe a single word I say
