G                                                                                            C  
From the very first hello until the very last goodbye
D7                                                                                    G                 D7  
From here to there and everything between
          G                                                                            C  
All I ever did was try my best to keep you satisfied
                     D7                                                                              G  
And all you ever did was make a fool of me
                     D7                                                                      G  
I tried every way I knew to give you everything I had
                     A7                                                                              D7  
And all I ever did was try to treat you right
                          G                                                                              C  
Still the best that I could do was never good enough for you
                             D7                                                                                            G  
I couldn't please you but the good Lord knows I tried
                                                                                                                  C  
My old friends they tried to warn me but I paid them all no mind
             D7                                                                                            G      D7  
When I see them now we don't have much to say
          G                                                                                                 C  
For you took everything I had and left me nothing but behind
                     D7                                                                         G  
Feeling like some old forgotten yesterday
                     D7                                                                      G  
I tried every way I knew to give you everything I had
                     A7                                                                              D7  
And all I ever did was try to treat you right
                          G                                                                              C  
Still the best that I could do was never good enough for you
                             D7                                                                                            G  
I couldn't please you but the good Lord knows I tried
                             D7                                                                                            G  
I couldn't please you but the good Lord knows I tried
