verse 1 
C 
I got the good side of things, 
Em 
Left you with both of the rings, 
F 
My fingers danced, 
And swayed in the breeze, 
    G6 
The change in the wind took you down to your knees 

C 
I got the good side of you, 
Em 
Sent it out into the blue, 
F 
The people danced, 
To the sound of your heart, 
    G6 
The world sang along to it falling apart 


[Refrão]
Chorus 
     C 
But I sympathise, 
     Em 
And I recognise, 
             F 
And baby, I apologise, 
               G6 
That I got the good side, 
                 C 
The good side of things 

Em F G6 

verse 2 
C 
I got the good side of life, 
Em 
Travelled the universe twice, 
F 
So many thoughts I wanted to share, 
   G6 
But I didn’t call because it wouldn’t be fair 

     C 
Then I got the good side of new, 
Em 
Found arms to fall right into, 
 F 
I know how it looked, It wasn’t the plan, 
    G6 
And someday I hope that you’ll understand, 


[Refrão]
Chorus 
      C 
That I sympathise, 
     Em 
And I recognise, 
             F 
And baby, I apologise, 
               G6 
That I got the good side, 
                 C 
The good side of things 

Em F G6 

verse 3 
C 
I’m sure we’ll meet in the spring, 
    Em 
And catch up on everything, 
F 
I’ll say I’m proud of all that you’ve done, 
    G6 
You taught me the ropes, and you taught me to love 

[Refrão]
