A (8)

  You think you're gonna take her away
With your money and your cocaine
Keep thinkin' that her mind is gonna change
But I know everything is okay

Chorus:

She's gonna listen to her heart

                 G (½)                A (2)
It's gonna tell her what to do

She might need a lot of lovin'

You want her to think it's over
Can't you see it don't matter what you do
Buddy you don't even know her
