       C
  I can't say it's nice to meet you

  Or that I ever wanted to

  But it was bound to happen in the end
C

  Now that we're face to face

  All that I can say
    F       G    C
  Is I'm sorry for you, my friend


🎸 Chorus:
   Dm
But you took him for granted
  Em
You didn't understand him
F                   G
I don't think you can 'cause you're a fool

And you just kept on goin'

Without even knowin'

  He was yours to hold

  With a heart as pure as gold

  Full of love you could've seen if you weren't blind
C
  And for the life of me

  Lord knows I just can't see

  Why he stayed with you all that time
