G    F    C

NC	             G		
He wasn't there when I needed him
F		  C
No, he was never around
		   G			
His reputation was preceding him
F		      C
And he was out on the town
		       G			
It didn't matter if he let me down
F		        C
I didn't care about the lies
		    	G
Now all I knew was that he loved me very much
F		     C
He was my hero in disguise

Bb	       F	       C
I'm so pleased I never gave up on him
Bb                           F                       C
Oh well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did
Bb	          F                         C         D
And everyone said you have to give him some time
F		   	       G                         C
And I'm glad that I gave it to him cause now everything's fine

NC		    G
Now you see I never thought you’d be 
F		        C
a constant person in my life
			   G
And I don't think that you would be if 
F		               C
you’d have stayed with your ex wife
		              G
I know you wouldn't but there is no need
F		C
No need to apologise
		             G
Because I know you'll always love me very much
F	              C
You are my hero in disguise

Bb	       F	       C
I'm so pleased I never gave up on him
Bb                           F                       C
Oh well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did
Bb	          F                         C        D
And everyone said you have to give him some time
F		   	       G                          C
And I'm glad that I gave it to him cause now everything's fine

NC				  G
You might have thought you didn't teach me much
F			     C
But you taught me right from wrong
			   G
And it was when you didn't keep in touch
F		        C
Well it taught me to be strong
			  G
And just in case you ever thought I would
F		              C
I wouldn't change you for the world
			     G
Because I know you'll always love me very much
F			     C
I'll always be you're little girl

Bb	       F	       C
I'm so pleased I never gave up on him
Bb                           F                       C
Oh well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did
Bb	          F                         C        D
And everyone said you have to give him some time
F		   	       G                          C
And I'm glad that I gave it to him cause now everything's fine
