G G7 C
I met her we fell in love and we parted
G D7
The same old story that a million tongues can tell
G G7 C
Cause she turned out to be jealous hearted
G D7 G
And life for me and for her became a living hell
G7 C
Oh Lord I'm standing at the doorsteps to heaven
G D7
Cause she's asking me to try it once again
G G7 C
One step would take me to the arms of my sweet darling
G D7 G
But the door of jealousy won't let me in
G7 C
Oh yes I tried Lord knows I tried to make her happy
G D7
But the eyes of jealous love are always blind
G G7 C
And I knew if I hung around much longer
G D7 G
That one or both of us was sure to lose our mind
G7 C
Oh Lord I'm standing at the doorsteps to heaven
G D7
Cause she's asking me to try it once again
G G7 C
One step would take me to the arms of my sweet angel
G D7 G
But the door of jealousy won't let me in
