CAPO OP 1
*********


A             E7             A
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
 F#m          F#m/F#         D
Perfect situations must go wrong
A            E7            D
But this has never yet prevented me
Bm              D                E7
From wanting far too much for far too long


A               E7                 A
Looking back, I could have done it differently
 F#m            F#m/F#            D
Won a few more moments, who can tell?
A            E7            D
But it took time to understand the man
 Bm             Bm/B             E7
Now at least I know, I know him well


A
Wasn't it good, (oh so good)
D
Wasn't he fine  (oh so fine)
Dm                  A   - F6
Isn't it madness he can't be mine
A              E7             F#m       Bm7
But in the end, he needs a little more than before
A                    E7          D
Security, he needs his fantasy and freedom
E7          A    Asus4  - D - E
I know him so well


A              E7               A
No one in your life is with you constantly
 F#m           F#m/F#          D
No one is completely on your side
A            E7               D
And though I move my world to be with him
Bm               D              E7
Still the gap between us is too wide


A               E7                    A
Looking back, I could have played it differently
 F#m               F#m/F#        D
Learned about the man before I fell
A         E7           D
But I was ever so much younger then
 Bm             Bm/B             E7
Now at least I know, I know him well


A
Wasn't it good, (oh so good)
D
Wasn't he fine  (oh so fine)
Dm                  A   - F6
Isn't it madness he won’t be mine
F#m
Didn't I know how it would go
 F#m/F#         B     B/B
if I knew from the start
 E/E   E/E  E        A
Why am I     falling apart


A
Wasn't it good, (oh so good)
D
Wasn't he fine  (oh so fine)
Dm                  A   - F6
Isn't it madness he can't be mine
A              E7             F#m       Bm7
But in the end, he needs a little more than before
A                    E7          D
Security, he needs his fantasy and freedom
E7          F#m
I know him so well

 F6           A/A        A6/A
It took time to understand him
D   E7          A     Asus4 – A
I know him so well
