And even when it's [E]business
with you it's [F]personal again
I knew you be[Dm]fore you made ends meet
And now we're [Am]meeting out end
And it's [E]all because you chose [F]a side

And of course [E]you went
and chose a side that [F]wasn't [Am]mine

[Am]You sit and you pray
hoping that the stars align
My luck is a sure thing
'cause I'm [E]living right
When [F]I needed you,
you couldn't give me any advice
But you always had
something to say every [Dm]other time
[Am]Everybody that I met on the way
tries to get in the way
I'm fooding and serving 'em [E]all
like I work for minimum wage
[F]Someone up there there must just love
testing my patience
Someone up there [Dm]must be
in need of some entertainment
[Am]Forgiveness for your ways
If I ever loved ya, I'll [E]always love ya,
