[Intro 1]
[C][F]
[C][F][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]I did my bes[F]t
But I [Em]guess my best wasn't [Am]good enough
Cause [Dm]here we are
[G]where we were be[Em]fore[Am]
Seems [Dm]nothin' ever [F]changes
We're [E]back to being [Am]strangers
[Dm]Wondering if we [C]oughta stay
Or [F]head on out the [G]door

[Chorus 1]
[C]Just onc[G]e
Can't we [Gm]figure out
what [C]we keep doin' [F]wrong[Em]
[Dm]Why we never l[G]ast for very l[Em]ong[Am]
What are we [Dm]do in' w[G]rong
[C]Just onc[G]e
Can't we [Gm]find a way
to [C]fi nally make it [F]right[Em]
To [Dm]make the magic [G]last for more
than [Em]just one [Am]night
If [Dm]we could just get to it
I [G]know we could break through it

[Interlude 1]
[C]Hmm[F]
[C][F][G]

[Verse 2]
[C]I gave my all[F]
But I [Em]think my all may have [Am]been too much
'Cause [Dm]Lord knows we're
not [G]gettin' any[Em]where[Am]
[Dm]Seems we're always [F]blowin'
What[E]ever we've got [Am]go in'
And it [Dm]seems at times with [C]all we've got
We [F]haven't got a [G]prayer

[Chorus 2]
[C]Just onc[G]e
Can't we [Gm]figure out
what [C]we keep doin' [F]wrong[Em]
[Dm]Why the good times
[G]never last for [Em]long[Am]
Where are we [Dm]go in' wr[G]ong
[C]Just onc[G]e
Can't we [Gm]find a way
to [C]fi nally [F]make it [Em]right
To [Dm]make the magic [G]last for more
than [Em]just one [Am]night
I [Dm]know we could break through it
If [G]we could just get to it just

[Bridge 1]
[Ab](once) I want to [Fm]understand
[Bbm]Why it always co[Eb]mes back to goodby[Ab]e
[B]Why can't we get our[G#m]selves in hand
[C#m]And admit to on[B]e another
[E]We're no good with[B]out each other
[C#m]Take the best and make i[B]t better
[Em]Find a way to [A]stay together

[Chorus 3]
[D]Just onc[A]e
Can't we [Am]find a way
to [D]fi nally make it [G]right, [F#m]whoa
[Em]Make the magic [A]last for more
than [F#m]just one n[Bm]ight
I [Em]know we could break through it
If [A]we could just get to it

[Outro 1]

[D]Who[A]a, we can get[Gm] through it[A]
Just [D]once[G]
