Capo II

INTRO: E B E A E A E B

E A

Once I had a woman with a high hand

E Bm

And I let her treat me mighty low man

E A

She made a lover of my best friend

E Bm

And now he treats me like a has been

CHORUS 1:

A B E

Yes I've had my trouble with the world around me

A B E

No, I didn't give it my best

A Bm F#m

Now I get a chance to see some better weather

B A E

If you want to stay forever, why don't we talk about it now

INTRO

Guess my reputation says I'm flaky

Hey my whole situation's kinda shaky

Some people 'round here think I've lost it

They drew the line I stepped across it

CHORUS 2:

Yes, I've had my troubles in some certain circles

No I didn't bring it on myself

Now I get a chance to know they'll eat their words

And if you don't care what you've heard, why don't we talk about it now

INTRO

BRIDGE:

F#

Sometimes I make it all up in my head

A

There's a whole lotta things that shoulda never been said

B F#

But this new ground feels solid that I'm standin on

SOLO

I have done some things that might amaze you

But then again most things don't even faze you

You got a way of standin' steadfast

I got a way of runnin' dead last

CHORUS 3:

Yes, I've had my trouble tryin' to start all over

No, I didn't give it all I could

Now, I get a chance to know what love can heal

And i you wanna know the feelin', why don't we talk about it now

B N/C

Yeah if you wanna know the feelin' why don't we talk about it now
