Lyrics
It started out like a (C)song.
(Fsus)We started quiet and (Faug)slow, with no surprise,
(F6)and then one (C)morning I (Dm9)woke to (D7)realize:
(Gm9)We had a good thing going.
(F)It's not that nothing went wrong.
(Fsus)Some angry moments, of (Faug)course, but just a few,
(F6)and only (C)moments, no (Dm9)more, (D7)because we knew (Gm11)we had a good thing going.
(F9)And if I wanted too much,
was that such a mistake at the time?
(Am7)You never wanted enough.
All right, tough, I don't make that a crime.
(F)And while it's going (C)along, (Fsus)you take for granted some (Faug)love will wear away.
(F6)We took for (C)granted a (Dm9)lot and (D7)still I say (Gm11)it could have kept on growing,
(Am9)instead of just kept on.
(Gm11)We had a good thing (Bb)(Dm)going...
(Bbmaj7)(C)going... (F)gone.
