A                          D7M           F#m         Bm
Once upon a time is how it always goes but I'll make it brief
A                              D7M                     F#m         G
What was started out with such excitement now I'd gladly end with relief
    A              D7M    F#m     B7
In what now has become a familiar motif


     A          E               G           D
That nothing is good enough for people like you
    A            E                G
Who have to have someone take the fall
    A            E        G                     D   Bm E D
And something to sabotage determined to lose it all


A                            D7M               F#m         Bm
Critics at their worst could never criticize the way that you do
            A                      D7M               F#m               G
No, there's no one else, I find to undermine or dash a hope quite like you
        A        D7M     F#m B7
And you do it so casually, too


        A       E               G           D
That nothing is good enough for people like you
    A            E                G
Who have to have someone take the fall
    A            E        G                     D  Bm E
And something to sabotage determined to lose it all


F          A         C#m7          F#m
Ladies and gentlemen here's exhibit A

Didn't I try again? And did the effort pay?
F          A           C#m7          G  D Bm E D
Wouldn't a smarter man simply walk away?


A                          D7M                   F#m            Bm
It doesn't really help that you can never say what you're looking for
       A                D7M                           F#m              G
You'll know it when you hear it know it when you see it walk through the door
       A            D7M  F#m         B7
So you say so you've said many times before


     A          E               G           D
That nothing is good enough for people like you
    A            E                G
Who have to have someone take the fall
    A            E        G             D       Bm E Bm
And something to sabotage determined to lose it all
F  A         C#m F#m   Dm A
Nothing is good enough
