C  G (2x)

[Verse 1]
G           C                      G
She's got a tattoo on her shoulder
G      C                    G
it's a blue eye with a tear.
G          C                  G
She got it drinkin' one night,
                         D/F#
when her thinkin' wasn't clear.
       C                       G
He was short but good looking,
G      C                           G
rugged green eyes and animal charm.
     C
That silver-tongued devil
   G                       D/F#
inspired that love scar on her arm.

[Chorus]
D/F#                     G                      D/F#
He said if I could be a tear rollin' down your cheek,
                Em7                      C
and die on your lips my life would be complete.
                  G                           D/F#
The words that he said really hit her in the heart,
                      C      D
so now she’s walking ‘round
D                C
with a love scar.

[Verse 2]
G       C                             G            C
She was just another notch on his snake skin belt,
C                G
and now she knows
       C                G
so she hides it under a long sleeved blouse
   D/F#
so it won't show.
    C                             G
She once thought it was beautiful,
             C                   G
But it's no longer a work of art.
     C
That ink needle didn't hurt
     G                        D/F#
but now she’s got a love scar on her heart.

[Bridge]
B7
If only she knew then
     Em
what she knows now.
A
If his mouth is open
A7       Am  Am7 D7
lies are coming out.

[Chorus]
D/F#                     G                      D/F#
He said if I could be a tear rollin' down your cheek,
                Em7                      C
and die on your lips my life would be complete.
                  G                           D/F#
The words that he said really hit her in the heart,
                      C      D
so now she’s walking ‘round
D                C
with a love scar.
