  			C            Em       F        C  
When I first met you, I was a dreamer 
             F                 Am   G  
I didn?t let nothing stand in my way,  
C       Em                 F             C  
I was looking for another soul to understand me 
                F               Am  G  
But you weren?t wild enough for me  
  
F        C    F               Am         G  
Goodbye lady, wish you could save me tonight  
F      C        F         C  
I was so wrong, I waited too long  
F              Am               G  
I didn?t know how to treat you right  
 
C    Em         F           C  
As I wandered, across this great land  
C             F               Am         G  
Looking for a girl to hold out her hand  
C            Em      F               C  
The days got longer, the nights got harder 
           F              Am      G  
I started searching for the end  
 
CHORUS  
 
C      Em       F           C  
So I called you, when I was passing through 
            F           Am     G  
I asked you out for the night  
C        Em     F             C  
She said sorry, I just can?t see you 
                  F           Am     G  
You know it just wouldn?t be right
