  			D                         A7 
Everybody says you let me down 
                                 D 
I should be ashamed to take you 'round 
                                     D 
Makes no difference what you used to do; 
         A7                          D 
Darling, I could never be ashamed of you. 
 
 
 
G                              D 
Maybe you were reckless yesterday 
     E7                               A7 
but together, we can find a brighter way. 
       D                              A7 
In my heart, I know that you'll come through 
         A7                           D 
Darling, I could never be ashamed of you 
 
 
 
 
                             A7 
All the happiness I've ever known 
                                   D 
came the day you said you'd be my own 
                                A7 
and it matters not what we go through 
                                   D 
Darlin I could never be ashamed of you 
 
 
 
       G                         D 
Maybe you've been cheated in the past, 
     E                                  A7 
and perhaps those memories will always last 
D                              A7 
even though you proved to be untrue 
                                   D 
darlin I could never be ashamed of you.
