The greatest bastard - Testo e Accordi

Re Re9 Sol La Re Re9 Sol La

 Re                            Re9
I made you laugh, I made you cry
                        Sol        Lasus4 (002030)
I made you open up your eyes  Didn't I?
 Re                         Re9
I helped you open out your wings,
                        Sol        Lasus4
your legs, and many other things Didn't I?

 Mim                                 Re9
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
                         Sol
The only one who let you go?
                           Lasus4         La7
The one you hurt so much you cannot bear?
Re                               Re9
Well we were good, when we were good
                        Sol  Lasus4
When we were not misunderstood

  Re                            Re9
You helped me love, you helped me live
                             Sol        Lasus4
You helped me learn how to forgive  Didn't you?
Re                          Re9
I wish that I could say the same
                                Sol       Lasus4
But when you left, you left the blame Didn't you?

 Mim                                 Re9
Am I the greatest bastard that you met?
                         Sol
The only one you can't forget?
                  Lasu4              La7
Am I the one your truth's been waiting for?
Re                          Re9
Or am I just dreaming once again?
                                 Sol  Lasus4
Some dreams are better when they end

Re             Re9            Sol              Lasu4
Some make it, mistake it some force and some will fake it
Sim      Fa#m            Sol  La
I never meant to let you down
Re             Re9           Sol              Lasu4
Some fret it, forget it some ruin and some regret it
Sim      Fa#m            Sol  La
I never meant to let you down

Re                            Re9
We learn to wag and tuck our tails
                             Sol      Lasus4
We learn to win and then to fail Didn't we?
Re                            Re9
We learn that lovers love to sing
                         Sol        Lasus4
And that losers love to cling Didn't we?

Mim                                 Re9
Am I the greatest bastard that you met?
                           Sol
When will we learn to let this go?
                         Lasu4           La7
We fought so much, we've broken all the charm
Re                         Re9
But letting go is not the same
                        Sol  Lasus4
As pushing someone else away

  Sim       Fa#m             Sol  La
So please don't let on you don't know me
 Sim      Fa#m            Sol  La
Please don't let on I'm not here
 Sim      Fa#m            Sol  La
Please don't let on you don't love me
 Sim      Fa#m       Sol  La
'Cause I know you do I know

Re                 Re9
That some make it, mistake it
  Sol              Lasus4
Some force and some will fake it
  Sim       Fa#m         Sol  La  Re                Re9
I never meant to let you down    some fret it, forget it
  Sol             Lasus4
Some ruin and some regret it
  Sim       Fa#m         Sol  La        Lasu4      La7
I never meant to let you down	I never meant to let you
  Sim       Fa#m         Sol  La
I never meant to let you down
        Lasus4 La7
I never meant

Sim Fa#m Sol La  Sim Fa#m Sol La
