  			D         A             G 
You found out I've been cheatin'  
D            A                    G 
And then you left, you had a good reason 
    G                A  D                     G 
But I never meant to do anything to ever hurt you 
D                 A                G 
And that ain't no lie, this is the truth 
 
D      A            G   
Baby I loved you, I really did  
D                    A            G  
And when I whispered I need you I meant what I said 
    G                      A         D                  G  
But now you don't want me around and Lord that's got me down 
D            A            G 
Cause baby I loved you, I really did 
 
 
I found out lately you've been cheatin' too 
Ad I doubt that it's hurtin' me like it's hurtin' you 
Now you know how it feels to make love that ain't real 
And if we ever try again I'm sure we'd be closer now than then 
 
 
Chorus 2: 
Baby I loved you I really did 
And when I whispered I need you I meant every word I said 
I didn't wanna tie you down I just wanted to be around 
Cause baby I loved you I really did cause baby I loved you I really did
