Chords
[Verse 1]
C G I smoked my last cigarette, I drank my last drop Am F Quit doing all the things I swore I'd never stop C G I changed my direction, I sang a different tune Am F Gave up all those childish ways that made me old too soon Dm G Things were going good there for a while F G C Am I tried to straighten out the crooked road that I was on C G C It was good while it lasted but it didn't last too long
[Verse 2]
C G I used to play down on Broadway, the same song every night Am F Singing for the tip jar underneath the neon light C G Had a good time with the women and the compliments were free Am F I dreamed of something bigger but it just wasn't meant to be Dm G But I was happy there for a while F G C Am Just like a desperado out searching for a song C G C It was good while it lasted but it didn't last too long
[Bridge]
G Nothing lasts forever F C Time knows that it's true Am But sometimes a little while G Is the best that we can do
[Verse 3]
C G You ended up beside me like some long forgotten dream Am F You took my hand and showed me colors I had never seen C G We both said forever, forever till the end Am F But forever's something different to a lover and a friend Dm G We thought we had it all there for a while F G C Am Just lIke that perfect moment 'tween the darkness and the dawn C G C It was good while it lasted but it didn't last too long
[Outro]
F G C One thing I can tell you from this life that's come and gone C G Am It was good while it lasted but it didn't last too long C G C It was good while it lasted but it didn't last too long
