Verse 1:
               E              Bsus4
It could have been but never was

              E                   C#m7   Bsus4   Asus2
At least the way you thought it'd be when you grew up

                E       Bsus4         E            C#m7  Bsus4 Asus2
And there's so much of you I love but loving you alone isn't enough

Chorus:
          E              Bsus4
You were good, You were good

               Asus2
Then you were gone

     E          Bsus4 Asus2
I believed you all along

           E       Bsus4 F#m  Asus2
Yeah it's sad but baby here we are

         E           Bsus4
It was good, It was good

             Asus2
Then it was gone

Verse 2:
            E              Bsus4
You got a charm you keep around your neck

   E                  C#m7   Bsus4      Asus2
Reminds you of him and I can see right through

             E                  Bsus4
And either you're just bad at cheating

            E              C#m7 Bsus4         Asus2
Or there's something your heart you wished I knew

Chorus 2: 
          E              Bsus4
You were good, You were good

               Asus2
Then you were gone

     E         Bsus4 Asus2
I believed you all along

           E       Bsus4 F#m
Yeah it's sad but baby here we are

        E            Bsus4
It was good, It was good

             Asus2
Then it was gone

Solo: E, B, F#m, A X 2

Verse 3:
        E            Bsus4
So I'm not who you wanted but

       E                C#m7     Bsus4   Asus2
Your still the one who sets the fire in me

             E               Bsus4
Guess I'll drink what I'll drink

            E              C#m7  Bsus4  Asus2
Until the loving touch I need is not a need
