C                          Csus2
I made you laugh, I made you cry,
                         F
I made you open up your eyes
     Gsus
Didn't I?

C                          Csus2
I helped you open up your wings,
                         F
Your legs and many other things
     Gsus
Didn't I?

Dm                                 Csus2
Am I the greatest bastard that you know,
                          F
The only one who lets you go,
                         Gsus                 
The one you hurt so much you can not bear?

C                        Csus2
We were good when we were good,
                          F     Gsus 
When we were not misunderstood.

C                                Csus2
You helped me love, you helped me live
                              F
You helped me learn how to forgive,
     Gsus
Didn't you?

C                         Csus2
Wish that I could say the same,
                              F 
But when you left, you left the blame.
     Gsus
Didn't you?

Dm                                Csus2
Am I the greatest bastard that you met,
                           F
The only one you can't forget,
                               Gsus
Am I the one your truth's been waiting for?

C                        Csus2
Am I just dreaming once again?
                                F     Gsus 
Some dreams are better when they end

C                            Csus2
Just woke in bed, you were in my head
                            F
I was underground and in a dream
                          Gsus
Pass this place I'm not suppose to be, 

C                         Csus2
And you were there waiting for me
                                      F
And, with a smile, you said It's been awhile
                        Gsus
You asked have I had I seen her recently. 

Dm                                Csus2
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
                              F
When will we learn to let this go?
                           Gsus
We fought so much we've broken all the chance! 

C                   Csus2
Letting go is not the same
                         F    Gsus
As pushing someone else away.

Am             Em      F         Gsus
So please don't let on you don't know me!
Am           Em     F          Gsus
Please don't let on that I'm not here!
Am           Em    F           Gsus
Please don't let on you don't love me,
Am              Em
Cause I know you do,
F          Gsus
I know you do
  (Am Em F Gsus)x2 Am
Somewhere
