F#m7                               C#m7
You need to give it up, had about enough.
                                 F#m7
It's not hard to see, the boy is mine.
                                 C#m7
I'm sorry that you seem to be confused,
                             F#m7
he belongs to me. The boy is mine.


1. Strophe

I think it's time we got this straight,
                           C#m7
let's sit and talk face to face,

There is no way you could mistake,
                      F#m7
Boy oh man, are you insane?

You see I know that you may be
                      C#m7
Just a bit jealous of me,

'Cause you're blind if you can't see,
                        F#m7
That his love is all in me.

See I tried to hesitate,
                                  C#m7
I didn't want to say what he told me.

He said without me he couldn't make it
                              F#m7
Through the day, ain't that a shame.

But maybe you misunderstood,
                          C#m7
'cause I can't see how he could.

Wanna take something that's so good,
                          F#m7
All of my love was all it took.


2. Refrain
                                   C#m7
You need to give it up, had about enough.
                                 F#m7
It's not hard to see, the boy is mine.
                                 C#m7
I'm sorry that you seem to be confused,
                             F#m7
he belongs to me. The boy is mine.


2. Strophe

Must you do the things you do?
                          C#m7
You keep on acting like a fool.

You need to know it's me not you,
                                     F#m7
And if you didn't know it, girl it's true.

I think that you should realize,
                         C#m7
I'm trying to understand why,

he is a part of my life,
                          F#m7
I know it's killing you inside.

You can say what you wanna say,
                       C#m7
What we have you can't take.

From the truth you can't escape,
                             F#m7
I can tell the real from the fake.

When will you get the picture?
                         C#m7
You're the best in the future.

Get away it's my time to shine,
                              F#m7
If you didn't know the boy is mine.

Bridge

Can be sure this love I've found,
                      C'm7
Simply gave him a new round.

The boy is mine without a doubt,
                            F#m7
He might as well come in up top.

What makes you think that he wants you?
                                  C#m7
When I'm the one that brought him to,

Special places in my heart.
                          F#m7
It was my lovin' from the start.
