[Verse 1]
D A
We used to chase that boy home from school
Bm A
call him freckled face, red headed fool
G
he was different
D G Asus A
he was'nt cool like me
D A
sticks and stones did'nt break any bones
Bm A
but we could'nt let well enough alone
G
and one day
D G Asus A
he ran away from home you see
Bm G Asus A
and i passed him as he walked away
Bm G Asus A
and in his eyes i heard him say
[Chorus]
D G Asus A
one of these days your gonna love me
F C D
you'll set down by yourself and think
G Asus A
about the times you pushed and shoved me
F C D
and what good friends we might have been
G D
then your gonna sigh a little
G F
and maybe even cry a little but
C
one of these days
A D G Asus A
your gonna love me
[Verse]
D A Bm
Patty sue was a small town beauty
A
i took one look and had to pull her to me
G D
lord knows she should've seen right through me
G Asus A
when i promised her the world
D A
but at seventeen you only want one thing
Bm A
and i left her standin with my high school ring
G D
innocent tears in the pooring rain
G Asus A
as i walked away
Bm G Asus A
and i still see her in my dreams
Bm G Asus A
and to this day she's wispering
D G Asus A
one of these days your gonna love me
F C D
You'll sit down by yourself and think
G
about the time you turned from me

one of these days
