[Note: you are able to play all ( D - D/F# - G - A ) - parts of the song as shown above]
[Verse 1]
D D/F# I made you laugh, I made you cry G9 I made you open up your eyes Asus4 Didn't I? D D/F# I helped you open out your wings, G9 your legs, and many other things Asus4 Didn't I?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em F#m Am I the greatest bastard that you know? G9 The only one who let you go? Asus4 The one you hurt so much you cannot bear? D D/F# Well we were good, when we were good G9 Asus4 When we were not misunderstood
[Verse 2]
D D/F# You helped me love, you helped me live G9 You helped me learn how to forgive Asus4 Didn't you? D D/F# I wish that I could say the same G9 But when you left, you left the blame Asus4 Didn't you?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em F#m Am I the greatest bastard that you met? G9 The only one you can't forget? Asus4 Am I the one your truth's been waiting for? D D/F# Or am I just dreaming once again? G9 Asus4 Some dreams are better when they end
[Chorus]
D D/F# Some make it, mistake it G9 Asus4 Some force and some will fake it Bm7 F#m G9 Asus4 I never meant to let you down D D/F# Some fret it, forget it G9 Asus4 Some ruin and some regret it Bm7 F#m G9 Asus4 I never meant to let you down
[Verse 3]
D D/F# We learn to wag and tuck our tails G9 We learn to win and then to fail Asus4 Didn't we? D D/F# We learn that lovers love to sing G9 And that losers love to cling Asus4 Didn't we?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em F#m Am I the greatest bastard that you know? G9 When will we learn to let this go? Asus4 We fought so much, we've broken all the charm D D/F# But letting go is not the same G9 Asus4 As pushing someone else away
[Bridge]
Bm7 F#m So please don't let on G9 Asus4 You don't know me Bm7 F#m Please don't let on G9 Asus4 I'm not here Bm7 F#m Please don't let on G9 Asus4 You don't love me Bm7 F#m 'Cause I know you do G9 Asus4 I know
[Chorus]
D D/F# That some make it, mistake it G Asus4 Some force and some will fake it Bm7 F#m G9 Asus4 I never meant to let you down D D/F# Some fret it, forget it G9 Asus4 Some ruin and some regret it Bm7 F#m G9 I never meant to let you down Asus4 I never meant to let you Em F#m G9 I never meant to let you down Asus4 I never meant
