[Verse 1]
G
You set your sights on me one night
D
When I was sad and lonely
We sang a song and before too long
G
I was thinkin' of you only
G
You were soft and nice, I did not think twice
C
Cause attention I was cravin'
G
Without much ado, I ran straight through
D G
The red flags you were wavin'
[Verse 2]
G
Hell hath no fire like blind desire
D
It's too late soon as it catches
Out of hand like a broken dam
G
Or gasoline to matches
G
I jumped right in when you pulled the pin
C
My higher self denyin'
G
Like a moth to flame, I set my aim
D G
On the red flags you were flyin'

[Verse 3]
G
Now you won't return and the silence burns
D
Of a warning, I'm reminded
"Be careful how you court" and now
G
With bitter tears, I'm blinded
G
If I'd been whole in my mind and soul
C
I'da never dreamt of throwin'
G
My heart at you but I dove into
D G
The red flags you were showin'
[Verse 4]
G
When I was young, seems I had no one
D
And my natural state was wishin'
You were like daylight after dark of night
G
Thought you had what I was missin'
G
You dressed my wounds and you learned my tunes
C
And I thought I needed savin'
G
From a self-waged war, so I ran straight for
D G
The red flags you were wavin'
