G        C        D  G  C        Em      G   
Her eyes tell the story too many nights alone 
G         C         D   G         C       Em       D 
He always takes for granted she's waiting there at home 
C                        Em       C                G 
He treats her like she's nothing, man that guy's a fool 
C        C/B    Em                  D 
Can't he see he holds a priceless jewel 
           G         C           Em    D 
If it were me I'd be thanking my lucky stars 
           G         C           Em    D 
If it were me I'd be holding her in my arms 
     C      Em   D           G          C 
She'd never ever wonder what true love means 
C           G   C  D  G  C  D 
If it were me 
  

G              C       D     G        C        Em       G 
I've heard the lies he tells her when he stays out 'til dawn 
G            C        D    G   C      Em        D 
The stuff he tries to sell her nobody buys for long 
C                 Em              C                    G  
She deserves much better than the crumbs he throws her way 
C            C/B       Em          D 
I think it's time somebody set him straight 
           G         C           Em    D 
If it were me I'd be thanking my lucky stars 
           G         C           Em    D 
If it were me I'd be holding her in my arms 
     C      Em   D           G          C 
She'd never ever wonder what true love means 
C           G   C  D   
If it were me 
Em                  D  G          C                  G 
Someday she's gonna realize she's worth a whole lot more 
Bb                                Am  D 
I'll be right there waiting at her door 
           G         C           Em    D 
If it were me I'd be thanking my lucky stars 
           G         C           Em    D 
If it were me I'd be holding her in my arms 
     C      Em   D           G          C 
She'd never ever wonder what true love means
