Chords for Leona Williams sings You Take Me For Granted in Mt. Vernon, IL

_ _ _ _ _ _
_ I don't want to put you all to sleep and sing these slow songs [D] but here's a slow one that I wrote.
Like I said at the show last night, I wrote this for one of the best singers in country music.
_ _ _ [E] It sold a lot of records, made me a lot of money [D#] and I spent it.
[D] _
_ And I'm speaking [A] about Merle.
He recorded this.
He had a number one [D] record of it.
_ Several different people have recorded [C#] it.
Even on one of the new albums that they've got out right now, [F#m] there's a new group that recorded it.
[D] Thompson Square has just recorded this.
They're doing [N] a great job on it.
I'll call you Tate and [D] Grandy. _ _ _ _ _

[D] _ _ _ _ _
And my life [A] is so hard
[D] From bending over backwards
[E] To just love the world I've [A] gone through
_ And _
[D] I'm crying [A] hard
To keep [D] a smile on a sad face
[G] While deep down it's breaking [D] my heart
_ _ And [G] as sure as the sun shines
[D] I'll be [G] a lifetime [D] not knowing
[A] If I've done [D] my part _ _ _
[A] You _ _ take me [D] for granted _ _
[A] And it's breaking [D] my heart _ _
And as sure as [F#] the sun shines
[G] I'll be [C] a lifetime [D]
not knowing
If _ [A] I've done [D] my part

[D] _ _ _ _ _
[A] You _ _ take me [D] for _ granted _
[A] And _ it's breaking [D] my heart
And as sure as the sun shines
[G] I'll be [F#] a lifetime [D] not knowing
If [A] I've done [D] my _ part _
Not knowing [A] if I've done [G] my part
Not knowing _ [D] if [Em] _ I've done my part
This _ is L.A. Williams, ladies and gentlemen. _
_ From Miami, [D#] Missouri. _
_ Great, [C] great, great. _
