G D
The lamp is broken on the mantle
G D
My mind is blown and I'm turnin' away
G D
It's getting more than I can handle
G D
It's getting more than I can say
C D G
I couldn't stay here if I wanted
C D Em
I couldn't stay here if I tried
C D G G/F# Em
You were always dissapointed in me
C D G D C
Guess I could never do nothing right
C D G
Guess I could never do nothing right
G D
And I work hard to make a living
G D
To make the good-life dream come true
G D
But you wanted more than I was giving
G D
I guess that's more than I can do
(Chorus)
C D G
I couldn't stay here if I wanted
C D Em
I couldn't stay here if I tried
C D G G/F# Em
You were always dissapointed in me
C D G D C
Guess I could never do nothing right
C D G
Guess I could never do nothing right
G D
You cut my heart like the cards on the table
G D
Seemed like fun for you to keep playin' on
G D
Well, I let you in as long as I was able
G D
Now all your games have done been run
(Chorus)
C D G
I couldn't stay here if I wanted
C D Em
I couldn't stay here if I tried
C D G G/F# Em
You were always dissapointed in me
C D G D C
Guess I could never do nothing right in your eyes
C D G
Guess I could never do nothing right
