Over a bluegrass bass line:
G G7 C C#dim G D G
(no chords)
You won't steal my poor heart again
You won't steal my poor heart again
You won't steal my tape recorder
I'll call the lord
And he'll put you in the pen
You won't steal that thing again.
G
I didn't even know your name or what was your game
D
But stealin' things has sure brought you to fame
G G7
I wanna know if you stole mine
C C#dim G
It was one of a kind and I'm saying if you're to blame
D G
You're life will never be the same
<Chorus>
G
You won't steal my poor heart again
G D
You won't steal my poor heart again
G G7
You won't steal my tape recorder
C
I'll call the lord
C#dim G
And he'll put you in the pen
D G
You won't steal that thing again.

2nd verse, just like the first:
I can't track you anymore
Detective work has sure become a bore
Tell me what you did with it
Stop this shit, give up yourself
Before they come knockin' at your door.
<Chorus>
G
You won't steal my poor heart again
G D
You won't steal my poor heart again
G G7
You won't steal my tape recorder
C
I'll call the lord
C#dim G
And he'll put you in the pen
D G->E7
You won't steal that thing again
A7 D7
You won't steal my poor heart again
