              Hi, this is my first tab so im sorry if you think it is wrong, but i'm pretty sure  
the chords are right for this song :) 
 
No Capo 
Chords: E C F A 
 
E                               C 
You were all that I wanted 
              F                              A 
I fell in love with all of your heart and your soul 
                      E                         C 
From that moment couldn't imagine 
                             F                              A 
You went from hurting me you're mistreated in your love 
I should have loved 
 
E         
Rivers of tear drops 
C 
These sharp pains in my heart 
F                                              A - Strum once, & pause 
If this was the way that you loved  
You never should have loved me 
 
E                                                      C  
     You never should have loved me 
                                                            F 
You never should have touched me 
You never should have 
                                 A                                   E 
Never should have told me you loved me and you would never leave me. 
                                                           C 
'Cause everything that you would do 
                                                   F 
It made me fall in love with you 
                                                        A 
Until you left and you made that mistake 
Now I can't take you back if I wanted to 
 
Rest of the song continues with same chords 
  
(Ohh ohh ohh ohh...) 
 
Balled up, laying in my bed 
Thoughts racing through my head 
How did we start out in love and end up here 
You said you loved me and I believed you 
Seems like you don't even mean what you say. 
 
Rivers of tear drops, 
This short pains in my heart 
This was the way that you loved 
You never should have loved me 
 
You never should have loved me 
You never should have touched me 
You never should have, 
Never should have told me you loved me and you would never leave me. 
'Cause everything that you would do 
It made me fall in love with you 
Until you left and you made that mistake 
Now I can't take you back if I wanted to 
 
You were all that I wanted 
I fell in love with you 
'cause you loved me and I thought that you were ready 
I thought that we were gonna be a family 
And if you weren't then you should have let me 
Keep all my love to give 
To someone away 
 
You never should have loved me 
You never should have touched me 
You never should have 
Never should have told me you loved me and you would never leave me. 
'Cause everything that you would do 
It made me fall in love with you 
Until you left and you made that mistake 
Now I can't take you back if I wanted to 
 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, hmm, hmm hmmm.
