Follow more or less same plucking style as intro for verse (more or less e.g G 
and G/f# sound better if you pluck from E string)
The G/f# isn't quite right.

G                              G/f#
I know I said I loved you but I'm thinking I was wrong,
Bm                             Em
I'm the first to admit that I'm still pretty young,
Am                             D                         Am
and I never meant to hurt you when I wrote you ten love songs.
G                              G/f#
but a guy that I could never get 'cause his girlfriend was pretty fit
Bm                             Em
and everyone who knew her loved her so.
Am                             D
and I made you leave her for me and now I'm feeling pretty mean,
Bm                             Em                                 Am    D
but my mind has f**ked me over more times than any man could ever know.

Em                        Am
Maybe I should give up, give in,
D                   G
give up trying to be thin,
Em                       Am
give up and turn into my mother,
D                 G
god knows I love her.

G                   Bm                 Am              D
and I'm sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state,
G                   Bm             Am        D
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware.
G                                        Bm
I would never love a man 'cause love and pain go hand in hand
Am                 D
and I can't do it again.

G                                G/f#
So we stayed up late one night to try and get our problems right,
Bm                                Em
but I couldn't get into his head just what was going through my mind,
Am
and I think he knew where I was going
D
he put Ryan Adams on
G
I think he thinks it makes me weak
G/f#
it only ever makes me strong.
Bm                                Em
I've got this friend who sounds just like him,
Am                                   D                              G
now he's the man I'd leave you for, the man that I just adore like you.
G                                    G/f#
The same man, he turns to me he said I've got to tell you how i feel,
Bm                                    Em
if god could make the perfect girl for me it would be you
Am                                     D
and my god told me not tell about how much do you love your fella?"
G                  Em
I don't know more everyday
 C           D             G
not in this new romantic way.

F           Am            D     F         Am               D
I'll always be your first love, you'll always be my first love.

G                           Bm           Am            D
And I'm sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state
G                  Bm              Am       D
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware,



G                            Bm                               Am
I will never love a man 'cause I could never hurt a man in this way.
G                            Bm                                     Am
I will never love a man cause I could never hurt a man, not in this new 
D         G
romantic way.
