Verse 1:
G+G C majorC
I did my best
Bm7Bm7 E minor 7Em7
But I guess, my best wasn't good enough
Am7Am7 D7D7 Bm7Bm7 E minor 7Em7
'Cause, here we are back where we were before
Am7Am7 D7D7
Seems nothin' ever changes
Bm7Bm7 E minor 7Em7
We're back to bein' strangers
Am7Am7
Wonderin' if, we ought to stay
C majorC D7D7
Or head on, out the door
Chorus:
G+G
Just Once
E7E7 C7C7
Can we figure out, what we keep, doin' wrong
Am7Am7 D7D7 Bm7Bm7 E minor 7Em7
Why, we never last for very long
Am7Am7 C majorC D7D7
What are we doin' wrong?
G+G
Just once
E7E7 C7C7
Can we find a way, to finally make it right
Am7Am7 D7D7 Bm7Bm7 E minorEm
To make the magic last, for more than just one night
Am7Am7
If we, could just get to it
C7C7
I know we could, break through it
G+G B minorBm A minorAm D MajorD

I gave my all

'Cause, Lord knows we're not getting anywhere
Am7Am7 D7D7
Seems, we're always blowin'
Bm7Bm7 E minor 7Em7
Whatever, we've got goin'
Am7Am7
And it seems at times, with all we've got
C majorC D7D7
We haven't, got a prayer
