Track 3 of 10 on the album "Starting New Memories" (1986) [Intro] E G# C#m F# A B7 E B7 [Verse 1]
E         A             B7             E
I'm not a wise man, but I've learned a lot

     C#m         F#m            B7
In a fountain of knowledge, I'm only a drop

    E      A        B7           E
But even a fool can give sound advice

     C#m          F#m              B7
It's free for the listening 'cause I paid the price
[Chorus]
   E            G#m       E          C#            F#m
So take it from me, don't leave her alone too many nights

B7                                       E     B7
Take it from me, don't be the reason she cries

   E                G#m        C#
At first, she'll be lonely and cry for you only

    F#m                     Am
And then for the loving she needs

            E        G#                C#m           F#
She'll find somebody new who's sure to take her from you

   A           B7            E   G#m   A   B7   C7
As sure as you took her from me
[Verse 2]
    F             Bb       C7         F
You might say I'm crazy to give you advice

         Dm      Gm          C7
But I've already lost her, I can't lose her twice

     F             Bb           C7            F
But, Lord, I still love her and she needs someone

       Dm      Gm           C7
Who'll do as I tell you and not as I've done
[Chorus]
   F            Am        F          D             Gm
So take it from me, don't leave her alone too many nights

C7                                       F     C7
Take it from me, don't be the reason she cries

   F                Am         D
At first, she'll be lonely and cry for you only

    Gm                      Bbm
And then for the loving she needs

            F        A                 Dm            G
She'll find somebody new who's sure to take her from you

   Bb          C7            F   Am   Bb   C7
As sure as you took her from me
