verse 1 

C                           Am 
I saw her today, as she was driving away, 
         Em 
With the man she loves. 
               C 
You know, that used to be me,  
          Am                            Em 
I was the face that she'd see, when she woke up. 


Bridge 

    F                           Am 
But I let her down, I made that pretty face frown, 
        Em 
I never thought she'd leave. 
         F                   Dm 
Now as I sit here alone, and she's moving on, 
      C                 Am      G 
I got nothing to do but grieve. 

  
             F         Am 
Cause I'm my own worst enemy, 
          G                             C 
Now she's marrying him, when she should be with me, 
            G                                   Am 
If I'd have treated her right, she'd never have had to leave, 
    G   C    F   Am        G 
Now I'm here all alone. 
G             Am 
My own worst enemy. 


verse 2 

  C                  Am 
I sit and I cry, and think of a life, 
        Em 
Oh that could have been, 
  C                              Am 
2 kids and a house, and it would all have been ours, 
    Em 
The places we'd have seen. 

Bridge 

      F                                   Am 
Those dreams are still hers, but with the man she deserves, 
            Em 
He'll never break her heart. 
  F                                        Dm 
I wish I had one more chance, wish I could change the past, 
              C                     Am        G 
I'd treat her right, right from the start. 

  
             F         Am 
Cause I'm my own worst enemy, 
          G                             C 
Now she's marrying him, when she should be with me, 
            G                                   Am 
If I'd have treated her right, she'd never have had to leave, 
    G   C    F   Am        G 
Now I'm here all alone. 
G             Am 
My own worst enemy. 

verse 3 

C                     Am 
I wonder if she, ever thinks about me, 
        Em 
And the life we lost, 
         C                            Am 
Does she think of the times, when she used to be mine, 
        Em 
Gone at such a cost. 

Bridge 

    F                         Am 
But I love her now, until the day that I die. 
           Em 
She always gave me life, 
             F                                  Dm 
I wish those dreams were still here, wish I was holding her near, 
               C               Am     G 
And she still wanted to be my wife. 

  
             F         Am 
Cause I'm my own worst enemy, 
          G                             C 
Now she's marrying him, when she should be with me, 
            G                                   Am 
If I'd have treated her right, she'd never have had to leave, 
    G   C    F   Am        G 
Now I'm here all alone. 
G             Am 
My own worst enemy.
