[F#m] The first day that we [C#m] met, it was love at first [Bm] sight.
You were my thoughts every [E] day and my dreams every [F#m] night.
This was it and I [C#m] knew it.
I never felt so [Bm] strong in my heart and [E] my soul that this love would [F#m] be lifelong.
But you were [C#m] too fine and I was too [Bm] blind to see all [E] the games that you played with my [G#] mind.
All the agony.
Baby, can't you see?
[C#] I _ _
_ [F#m] asked you [C#m] time and time if there was [Bm] someone else.
You always said [E] no, thinking of yourself.
[F#m] Not that [C#m] I'd be hurt or torn [Bm] apart.
Didn't make a difference if you broke my [F#m] heart in two.
Cause [C#m] you knew how much I [Bm] loved you.
Everything you [E] say, everything you do.
[G#] I could go on and on and on like a [C#] champ but to forgive you, I [F#m] called a friend.
[C#m] So I wouldn't be by [Bm] myself.
It didn't work.
But she couldn't help.
[F#m] I'd cry and I'd [C#m] weep cause I felt so [Bm] weak.
Couldn't eat, couldn't [E] sleep.
So I'd walk the [F#m] streets just to think you were the [C#m] man that I wanted to [Bm] marry.
To share my [E] life, whose children I [G#] carry.
But you chose to love and leave I see.
[C#m] But why did it [A] have to be me?

_ [F#m] _ _ [C#m] Why did it [Bm] have to be me?
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ _
[F#m] You know it used to be [C#m] great.
Just you and me.
[Bm] You'd take my hand and [D] we'd walk down privacy.
[F#m] I remember when you [C#m] asked me to be yours, I said [Bm] yes.
Because without a doubt, [E] I knew I had the best.
[F#m] You bought me gold and [C#m] diamonds and furs.
[Bm] A car, a house with [E] towels marked his and hers.
[G#] You'd hold me so tight that I'd wanna pop.
[C#m] But then I'd whisper in your ear.
[F#m] _ Things started [C#m] changing.
What did I do [Bm] wrong to have you pouring my [D] heart into this love [F#m] song?
You'd leave in the [C#m] evening, return in the [Bm] morning.
Say that you're tired but you're not even [F#m] young.
You smell real [C#m] good but it's not your cologne.
[Bm] It's the scent of a [D] perfume that I don't [G#] own.
Now I know it wasn't meant to be.
[C#m] But why did it have to be me?
[F#m] _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [D] _
_ [F#m] _ _ [C#m] Why did [Bm] it have to be [E] me?
_ [F#m] _ _ [C#m] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [D] _
_ [G#] _ Tell me, [C#m] tell me, tell me.
[B] You [A] know, _ [F#] one thing [F#m] you'll learn is true.
[D] What you [A] do to others [F#m] will turn around and be done to you.
[D] It's the [A] way the almighty made it.
[F#m] Those who give change will receive it [D] eventually.
Love is [A] sacred, love is lovely, love is [F#m] love.
It can't be replaced with any feeling you can [D] think of.
[E] One day, [F#m] it's gonna happen to you.
_ [D] _ [A] The girl that you love, [F#m] she won't love you.
[Em] Then you'll [A] see how it feels when you [F#m] can't eat meals and you find out heartaches are for [D] real.
Then you'll think about me, [F#m] just think about me, but don't call me.
[D] Cause you'll be [A] looking in the mirror [F#m] and asking yourself,
_ [D] Why did it have to be me?
[F#m] Why me? _ _
