Intro C  F  C  Dm  G7  

C        F 
  I did my best 
    Em          Am 
But I guess my best wasn't good enough 
   Dm          G7               A7 
'Cause here we are back where we were before 
  Dm              G7 
Seems nothing ever changes 
   Em          Am 
We're back to be strangers 
Dm           Em 
Wondering if we are to stay 
  F               G7 
Or head on out the door 

C     G           Gm               C7        F 
  Just once can we figure out what we keep doing wrong 
Dm            G7         Em7    Am 
Why we never last for very long 
            Dm           G7 
What are we doing wrong 
C    G       Gm             C7         F 
  Just once can we find a way to finally make it right 
Dm       G7             Em7     Am 
Make the magic last for more than just one night 
   Dm            Em 
If we could just get to it 
  F          G7      C  F  C  G7 
I know we could break through it 
C       F 
I gave my all 
    Em             Am 
But I think my all may have been too much 
   Dm          G7         C  A7 
Lord knows we're not getting anywhere 
  Dm       G7 
Seems we're always blowing 
  Em        Am 
Whatever we've got going 
Dm         Em 
And seems that time was all we've got 
 F         G7 
We haven't got a break 
C     G      Gm              C7            F 
 Just once can we figure out what we keep doing wrong 
Dm                G7                 Em7   Am 
Why the good times never last for very long 
             Dm           G7 
What are we going wrong 
C    G      Gm                 C7              F 
Just once can we find a way to finally make it right 
Dm             G7             Em7          Am 
Make the magic last for more than just one night 
   Dm                 Em 
I know we could break through it 
 F            G7            
If we could just get to it 

   Ab        Db 
Just once I want to understand 
A#m            D#           Ab 
Why it always comes back to goodbye 
B                        E 
Why can't we get ourselves in hand 
  F#m             E 
And admit to one another 
F#m             E 
We're no good without each other 
F#m            E 
Take the best, and make it better 
Em           A7 
Find a way to stay together 

D    A           Am        D7                 G 
Just once can we find a way to finally make it right 
Em              A7           F#m     Bm 
Make the magic last for more than just one night 
   Em          F#m 
I know we could break through it 
   G          A7     D  A7  D  A7 
If we could just get to it 
 D 
Whoa oh 
   Em    Am 
We could get to it 
  D  G  D  Em  A7  B 
Just once
