verse 1 
D  
Some girls lose their boys after years  
A                           D 
Some lose them right at the start 
D                                                      
Standing in line it's a question of time whose gonna  
E                  A 
Be the next broken heart 
    G                      D                                                                       
But my heart belonged to a love so strong  
           G                           D 
I would've loved him to the day that I die 
      D                                       A             D 
But I didn't lose my love to the Lord above I lost him to a DIY 


Bm                         D  
D she was so determined to take him right out of my hands 
Bm                              A  
I if you're idle in love she'll steal him from the very first dance 
Bm                             D 
Y she was young and pretty and young and pretty's better than I  
N.C.                                                                          D 
We give em all kisses now they've found another missus cos we lost em to a DIY 


verse 2 
D                                               
Some women feel if you put around a seal it'll  
A                    D 
Keep your fella outa reach 
D                                                            
But it ain't always so they can grab em from below thats a  
E                      A 
Lesson every woman can teach 
    G                   D                            
But my man was just the sort you can trust  
          G                         D  
You could look a fella right in the eye 
N.C.                                                                           D 
But it wasn't for deceiving for suddenly he was leaving and I lost him to a DIY 


Bm                         D  
D she was so determined to take him right out of my hands 
Bm                              A  
I if you're idle in love she'll steal him from the very first dance 
Bm                             D 
Y she was young and pretty and young and pretty's better than I  
N.C.                                                                   D 
We give em all kisses now they've found another missus cos we lost em to a DIY
