Verse 1:

D G

From the very first hello to the very last goodbye

A D

From here to there and everything between

G

All i ever did was try my best to keep you satisfied

A D

And all you ever did was make a fool of me

Chorus:

A D

I tried every way i knew to give you everything i had

E A

And all i ever did was try to treat you right

D G

Still the best that i could do was never good enough for you

A D

I couldn't please you but the good Lord knows i tried

Verse 2:

D G

My old friends they tried to warn me but i paid them all no mind

A D

When i see them now we don't have much to say

G

For you took everything we had,left me nothing but behind

A D

Feelin' like some old forgotten yesterday
