D             Dsus2
I made you laugh, I made you cry,
             G
I made you open up your eyes
   Asus
Didn't I?

D             Dsus2
I helped you open up your wings,
             G
Your legs and many other things
   Asus
Didn't I?

Em                 Dsus2
Am I the greatest bastard that you know,
             G
The only one who lets you go,
             Asus
The one you hurt so much you can not bear?

D            Dsus2
We were good when we were good,
             G   Asus
When we were not misunderstood.

D                Dsus2
You helped me love, you helped me live
               G
You helped me learn how to forgive,
   Asus
Didn't you?

D             Dsus2
Wish that I could say the same,
               G
But when you left, you left the blame.
   Asus
Didn't you?

Em                Dsus2
Am I the greatest bastard that you met,
              G
The only one you can't forget,
                Asus
Am I the one your truth's been waiting for?

D            Dsus2
Am I just dreaming once again?
                G   Asus
Some dreams are better when they end

D              Dsus2
Just woke in bed, you were in my head
              G
I was underground and in a dream
             Asus
Pass this place I'm not suppose to be,

D             Dsus2
And you were there waiting for me
                   G
And, with a smile, you said It's been awhile
            Asus
You asked have I had I seen her recently.

Em                Dsus2
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
               G
When will we learn to let this go?
              Asus
We fought so much we've broken all the chance!

D          Dsus2
Letting go is not the same
             G  Asus
As pushing someone else away.

Bm       F#m   G     Asus
So please don't let on you don't know me!
Bm      F#m   G     Asus
Please don't let on that I'm not here!
Bm      F#m  G      Asus
Please don't let on you don't love me,
Bm       F#m
Cause I know you do,
G     Asus
I know you do
 (Bm F#m G Asus)x2 Bm
Somewhere
