Intro:
F C Bb F


Verse 1:

F                     C
It started out like a song

F                    A
We started quiet and slow

     A7
With no surprise

F            E7sus4  Dm9
And then one morning I woke

   D7
To realize

Gm7                 C
We had a good thing going

Verse 2:

F                          C
It's not that nothing went wrong:

F                      A
Some angry moments, of course

    A7
But just a few

F            E7sus4  Dm9
And only moments, no more

  D7
Because we knew

Gm7                    C
We had this good thing going


Bridge:

Cm                  F
And if I wanted too much

Was that such
  Bb
A mistake

       G
At the time?

Am                 D
You never wanted enough

           D7
All right, tough

        G7
I don't make

       C7
That a crime


Verse 3:

F                    C
And while it's going along

F                         A
You take for granted some love

     A7
Will wear away

F            E7sus4   Dm9
We took for granted a lot

    D7
But still I say:

Gm7
It could have kept on growing

C                    D
Instead of just kept on

Bb                  Gm
We had a good thing going

C      F
Going, gone
