Intro:  C5  F5  C5  D5  G5 
 
C5              F5 
  I did my best 
         G5                         A5 
But I guess my best wasn't good enough 
       D5                 G5            C5      A5 
'Cause here we are back where we were before 
       D5            G5 
Seems nothing ever changes 
       E5          A5 
We're back to be strangers 
D5              E5 
Wondering if we are to stay 
    F5               G5 
Or head on out the door 
  

C5       G5          Bb5          C5             F5
  Just once can we figure out what we keep doing wrong 
D5      G5                  E5   A5 
Why we never last for very long 
             D5             G5 
What are we doing wrong 
C5      G5         Bb5            C5              F5 
  Just once can we find a way to finally make it right 
D5              G5                 E5      A5 
Make the magic last for more than just one night 
D5                   E5                      
If we could just get to it 
  F5                       G5            C5  F5  C5  G5 
I know we could break through it 
  
I gave my all 

But I think my all may have been too much 

Lord knows we're not getting anywhere 

Seems we're always blowing 

Whatever we've got going 

And seems that time was all we've got 

We haven't got a break 
  
Just once can we figure out what we keep doing wrong 

Why the good times never last for very long 

What are we going wrong 

Just once can we find a way to finally make it right 

Make the magic last for more than just one night 

I know we could break through it 

If we could just get to it 
  

      Ab5               Db5 
Just once I want to understand 
Bb5            Eb5             Ab5 
Why it always comes back to goodbye 
B5                     E5 
Why can't we get ourselves in hand 
F#5           E5 
And admit to one another 
F#5              E5 
Were no good without each other 
F#5                 E5 
Take the best, and make it better 
E5             A5 
Find a way to stay together 
 

D5     A5        C5            D5              G5 
Just once can we find a way to finally make it right 
E5              A5                F#5      B5   
Make the magic last for more than just one night 
   E5                          F#5 
I know we could break through it 
    G5                 A5    D5 A5  D5 A5               
If we could just get to it 
         D5 
Whoa oh 
             E5  A5 
We could get to it 
        D5    G5  D5  E5  A5  B5 
Just once.
