F#
Once upon time
A few mistakes ago
C#
I was in your sights
You got me alone
     D#m
You found me
You found me
     B
You found me
   F#
I guess you didn't care
And I guess I liked that
      C#
And when I fell hard
You took a step back
    D#m                   B
Without me without me without me

F#             C#
And he's long gone
                 D#m
When he's next to me
          B
And I realize the blame is on me

Chorus:
      D#m                B                     C#
 Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
      F#       C#     D#m
 So shame on me now-ow
              B               C#
 Flew me to places I'd never been
         F#     C#
 So you put me down oh
D#m                B                     C#
 I knew you were trouble when you walked in
      F#      C#    D#m
 So shame on me now-ow
              B               C#
 Flew me to places I'd never been
          F#                      D#m
 Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
D#m   B   C#         F#       C#
   Ooh ooh trouble trouble trouble
D#m   B   C#         F#       C#
   Ooh ooh trouble trouble trouble

No apologies, he'll never see you cry
Pretends he doesn't know
That he's the reason why
You're drowning, you're drowning
You're drowning
And I heard you moved on
From whispers on the street
A new notch in your belt is all I'll ever be
And now I see, now I see
Now I see

He was long gone
When he met me
And I realize the joke is on me

Chorus

            B                  D#m
 When your sadest fear comes creeping in
           B                       C#
 That you never loved me or her or anyone
 or anything
 Yeah

Chorus:
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So, shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been (Never been)
'Til you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
(Knew it right there)
So, shame on me now (Knew it right there)
Flew me to places I'd never been (Ooh)
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble (Oh)
Oh, oh-oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble

I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble trouble trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble trouble trouble
