E5  C#5  E5  C#5   
                                                
       E5 
I am a full grown fool and I should have know better 
      A5 
But I tried and I tried and I could not forget her 
        E5 
I would go back to her time after time 
A5                    B5 
Man I must have been out of mind 


            E5 
All of that crying for nothing 
            C#5 
All of that trying for nothing 
            A5 
What has it ever got me 
            B5 
What has it ever taught me 
            E5 
I've got to keep believing 
    C#5 
In something baby 
                A5 
Instead of just trying for nothing 
B5                    E5    E5 C#5   E5  C#5 
Crying for nothing at all  
 
We fought for love and we fought for trust 

And the whole blessed time it was right there in front of us 

But we could not reach it and I don't know why 

And it took so long just to say goodbye 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
F#5 
Her friends all told me, and mine told me 
    E5 
But we would not listen, we could not see 
F#5 , 
Me and my pride, her and her dreams 
B5 
We never ever stood a chance it seems 
 
SOLO
