[C#m]
[D] [D#] [E]
[C#m] [B] I feel so useless down [C#] here with no one to love
[F] Though I've looked [Dm] [C] everywhere and I can't find me [E] anybody to love
To feel my [F#] care so
[F#m]
Why, [C#m] oh,
[F] [F#] why
[E] [C#]
[D#] [E] Don't you know how [C#] hard it [B] is
Tryin' to live on [C] your [C#] own
Every day I keep tryin' to move [F] forward
And somethin' is drivin' me [Dm] Oh, [C] baby
But it's somethin' tryin' to hold on [E] to me
Turn my world black
[F#] So, [F#m]
[C#m] don't you forget me down here Lord.
[B] [F#]
Oh, oh, [C#m] don't you forget me Lord.
[E] Well I don't think I'm [D#m] any very special [B] kind of person down here.
I know better.
[C] [C#] But I don't think you're gonna find anybody, not [F] anybody,
who can say they've been tried.
They [C] got tried.
The worst you can say [E] all about me is that I've never satisfied.
