This is basically a 1, 6, 4, 5, in B, Diatonically speaking.

More simply for most, here's the chord/lyrics chart lol:

                                                 
I used to play around with hearts that hastened at my call,
                                               
But when I met that little girl I knew that I would fall.

[Chorus]
                              
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

                                                   
She played around and teased me with her carefree devil eyes,
                                                     
She'd hold me close and kiss me but her heart was full of lies.

[Chorus]

                                                
She told me how she cared for me and that we'd never part,
                                         
And so for the very first time I gave away my heart.

[Chorus]

                                              
The next day she was gone and I knew she'd lied to me,
                                             
She left me with a broken heart and won her victory.

[Chorus]

                                                          
I'd played this game with other hearts but I never thought I'd see,
                                                         
The day that someone else would play love's foolish game with me.

[Chorus]
