"Careless Love" Traditional (lyrics as sung by Bessie)
G D G Love, oh love, oh careless love G D Love, oh love, oh careless love G C Love, oh love, oh careless love G D G See what careless love has done
G D G Love, oh love, oh careless love G D You've fly through my head like wine G C You've wrecked the life of a many poor girl G D G And you nearly spoiled this life of mine
G D G Love, oh love, oh careless love G D In your clutches of desire G C You've made me break a many true vow G D G Then you set my soul on fire
G D G Love, oh love, oh careless love G D All my happiness bereft G C You've filled my heart with weary old blues G D G Now I'm walkin', talkin' to myself
G D G Love, oh love, oh careless love G D Trusted you now, it's too late G C You've made me throw my old friend down G D G That's why I sing this song of hate
G D G Love, oh love, oh careless love G D Night and day, I weep and moan G C You brought the wrong man into this life of mine G D G For my sins, till judgment I'll atone
