              The Very Best Of Buck Owens 
Volume 2 
 
Intro: G-D7-G 
 
G                                    C  
She knew I knew that she was out to get me,  
D7                                  G 
But I just close my eyes and let it be. 
                                    C 
Now she walks by me like she never met me  
   D7                    G 
I didn't even make a memory 
 
 
Chorus 
 
(NC)       D7                     C 
For I was under the influence of love  
   D7                            G  
I wonder now what I was thinking of 
 
Yes I was so in love I let her  
C 
Hurt me though I knew better 
D7                      G 
Under the influence of love 
 
 
Instrumental: (G-C-D-G) X2 
 
G                                 C 
Why did I let her do me like she done me  
     D7                            G 
Why can't I get that woman off my mind 
                                  C 
Although I know she never truly loved me  
   D7                                G 
I wish shed break my heart just one time 
 
(NC)       D7                     C 
For I was under the influence of love  
    D7                           G 
I wonder now what I was thinking of 
 
Yes I was so in love I let her  
C 
Hurt me though I knew better 
D7                      G 
Under the influence of love
