(Intro) D G A D

D G D
The mansion I own has captured your heart
A D
You said it was love dear but you lied from the start
G A D
I wanted true love but you wanted my gold
A G D
Someday you'll be sorry for the lies that you told

(Chorus)

D G
You've stolen my heart and you cheated on me
D A
But someday my darling I know that you'll see
- G D
A house without love can make you so cold
A G D (2: D G D)
And you will be lonely in the mansion you stole

(Instr) D G D

D A D
You said it was love dear but you lied from the start

(Instr) D G A D

D A G D
Someday you'll be sorry for the lies that you told
