The Good Lord Knows I Tried

Tom: D

                  D                       G
        From the very first hello to the very last goodbye
              A                               D
        From here to there and everything between
                                           G
        All i ever did was try my best to keep you satisfied
                    A                            D
        And all you ever did was make a fool of me

Chorus:
                A                             D
        I tried every way i knew to give you everything i had
                  E                              A
        And all i ever did was try to treat you right
                   D                              G
        Still the best that i could do was never good enough for you
                     A                                    D
        I couldn't please you but the good Lord knows i tried

Verse 2:
      D                                             G
        My old friends they tried to warn me but i paid them all no mind
                A                                  D
        When i see them now we don't have much to say
                                                G
        For you took everything we had,left me nothing but behind
                 A                             D
        Feelin' like some old forgotten yesterday

Chorus:
                A                             D
        I tried every way i knew to give you everything i had
                  E                              A
        And all i ever did was try to treat you right
                   D                              G
        Still the best that i could do was never good enough for you
                     A                                    D
        I couldn't please you but the good Lord knows i tried
