[1] The first time that I met her she took my breath a-[4]-way My [5] body started tremblin' and I [4] didn't know what to [1] say But I pulled myself together and I asked her for her [4] name She [5] said my name is Sally Jo but [4] I don't play the [1] game
The game of [4] love 'em and leave em The nights of [1] cryin' and weepin' I'll never [4] love no one again I got [5] caught up in the game that I can't [1] win
Many times I've heard the story of a love that's gone bad And I can understand it I lost the one I had To a man who's never played before this crazy game I've lost Well he don't know the pain right now but soon he'll pay the cost
