Verse

Am7              C       G                          
I used to be the man for you,
Am7                 C       G   
Did everything you wanted me to,
Am7               C         G   
So, tell me, baby,where did I go 
Am7               C         G
wrong...

Am7                 C         G
I told you what you wanted to know,
Am7                    C        G
Precious secrets never spoken before.
Am7            C         G
All I?m asking,Where did I go 
Am7               C         G
wrong...

Pre - Chorus

F               C           G
Some things are better left unsaid,
F               C           G
But, all I do is cry instead,
G  
Now, I?ve cried me a river,
Am
Thinking how it used to be...

Chorus

              C        F
There?ve been too many tears falling,
                  C        F
And there?ve been too many hearts

Breaking in two.
G
Remember what we had together,
                   F    G
Believing it would last forever.
Am7                 C         G
So, tell me, baby, Where did I go 
Am7
wrong...

Verse

Am7          C       G
Everything I had was yours,
Am7                   C     G
More than I have ever given before,
Am7                         C        G
So, won?t you tell me Did I hurt you so 
Am7
bad...

Pre-Chorus

F           C         G
I guess I?m fooling myself,
F             C       G       
?cause I want you and no one else.
G
And I can?t understand
Am
Why you?re doing these things to me...

Chorus

              C        F
There?ve been too many tears falling,
                  C        F
And there?ve been too many hearts

Breaking in two.
G
Remember what we had together,
                   F    G
Believing it would last forever.
Am7                 C         G
So, tell me, baby, Where did I go 
Am7
wrong...
