   A               A7
I told you that I loved you.
     D    
You said that is so good.
   E                   
I called you my darlin'.
    E7              A
I thought I always would.
     A                   A7
But now you've gone and left me
   D
I don't know what to do.
 E
So my little darlin'
    E7                  A
I write these words to you.

          D
You dun stomped on my heart.
         A                        B
And you mashed that sucker flat.
                  E
You just sortta stomped on my aorta.

   A               A7
You started going out with guys.
   D
I felt us drift apart.
    E
And every step you took
   E7              A
Was a stomp on my heart.

   A               A7
I only hope that someday 
     D
You get them low down blues.
    E7              
In some smokey honky tonk.
		        A
You looked down at your shoes.

You'll think about that tender heart
           D
That you crushed beneath them soles.
           E
With your cold bustin' stompers
			      A
You left my heart so full of holes.

          D
You dun stomped on my heart.
         A                        B
And you mashed that sucker flat.
                  E
You just sortta stomped on my aorta.

   A               A7
You started going out with guys.
   D
I felt us drift apart.
    E
And every step you took
   E7              A
Was a stomp on my heart.
    E
And every step you took
   E7              A
Was a stomp on my heart.
