Verse: 
 
A7 
Where's that diamond ring you promised? 
E7 
My fingers looking bare 
A7 
Where's that valentine, be honest, 
E7 
The postman didn't bring it here 
A7 
The thing I wasn't looking for 
E7 
I found in your bedroom drawer 
A7 
The letter that you loved her better, 
E7                      
Made me want you even,

Chorus      : 
        A                   C#m 
Because too much love's not good for you 
     A                 C#m 
Your heart can get too full 
    A                  C#m 
And too much love's an IOU 
B 
If I give you that, you'll 
B      Bb            A7 
Pay me back with the blues. 
A7       E7     x2 
Ooohhhh, yeah 
 
A7 
Where is all that time you promised? 
E7 
The first hand's on the three 
A7 
Where's the second hand, I'm bothered 
E7 
To see it stroking on her knee 
A7 
The thing I wasn't looking for 
E7 
I found in your bedroom drawer 
A7 
The letter that you loved her better, 
E7 
Made me want you even,
