High, lonesome and then some
     A    E     A        E
What might have been was always meant to be
A   E A            D
High, lonesome and then some

Verse 1:
E       A      E     A        D   A   D      A
All she wanted me to be was a halfway decent person
     E          A               E
But I had always been afraid of change
     A                         D         A         D
So I lied thru my teeth and of course it worked at first
    A
But then it just got worse and worse
    E                  A         E
And now we’re totally estranged


Chorus:
A   E A            D
High, lonesome and then some
     A    E     A        E
What might have been was always meant to be
A   E A            D
High, lonesome and then some
                  A       E                        A E A
Still looking for someone looking for someone like me


Verse 2:
E       A    E      A                  D
All I’d ever ask of you would be to forgive me
           A E       A    E
Again every  now and then nearly everyday
          A      E     A       E    D      A   D
At least I won’t be pretending I am trying to amend them
       A        E      A     E                 A  E
When I know I’m always going my own separating way


Chorus:
A                  D
High, lonesome and then some
     A    E     A        E
What might have been was always meant to be
A                  D
High, lonesome and then some
                  A       E                        A E A E
Still looking for someone looking for someone like me

What might have been was always meant to be
A                  D
High, lonesome and then some
                  A       E                        A
Still looking for someone looking for someone like me
E           A       E                        A
Looking for someone looking for someone like me
                            E                A
Looking for someone looking for someone like me
