When you were mine
A                    B
I gave you all of my money
E          B
Time after time
A           B
You done me wrong
E                  B
It was just like a dream
A              B                     E
You let all my friends come over and meet
E               B
And you were so strange
A                  B                     E
You didnt have the decency to change the sheets

E                      B
Oh girl, when you were mine
A                 B           E
I used to let you wear all my clothes
E           B
You were so fine (so fine)
A               B                       E
Maybe thats the reason that it hurts me so

  E       B
I know (I know)
B                      Ab
That youre going with another guy
   E              B
I dont care (dont care)
B                     Ab
Cause I love u, baby, thats no lie
A                      B
I love you more than I did
              E
When you were mine

( E  B  A  B )
When you were mine
You were kinda sorta my best friend
So I was blind (so blind)
I let you fool around
I never cared (didnt care)
I never was the kind to make a fuss
When he was there
Sleeping in between the two of us

I know (I know)
That youre going with another guy
I dont care (dont care)
Cause I love you, baby, thats no lie
I love you more than I did
When you were mine

When you were mine
U were all I ever wanted to do
Now I spend my time
Following him whenever hes with you

I know (I know)
That youre going with another guy
I dont care (dont care)
Cause I love you, baby, thats no lie
I love you more that I did
When you were mine

When you were mine, yeah, oh no
Love you, baby
Love you, baby
When you were mine
