(verse 1) 
C 
she was good at late night listening,  
                            G 
When he called her on the phone, 
C 
she was good to come and get him, 
                          G 
When he couldn't make it home, 
C 
she was good to make love to, 
         Cm          Am7 
And they did now and then, 
C 
she was good to never ask, 
     Cm            Am7 - Em7 - D 
When he'd be back again, but, 

                 C               G - F#m - Em7 
That she wasn't good enough, for him, 
          G7             C   - Bm - Am 
For his family are his friends, 
                            D7 
He kept her out there on a limb, 
                 Am       G   D - D7 
Wouldn't let her go, let her in, 
            Am7   D7        C 
She wasn't good enough for him, 
 
 
(verse 2) 
C 
she was there on his bad days, 
                          G 
And for years he lead her on, 
C 
we all knew she had some bad case, 
                      G 
He was doing her all wrong, 
C 
she couldn't bring herself to do the right thing,  
                        D7 - Em7 -A7 
Break it off and say goodbye, 
C                                Cm 
till she overheard him one night telling, 
             G   D - D7 
Somebody on the side, 
 
 
 
(bridge) 
                           D7 
He kept her out there on a limb,  
                 Am       G   D - D7 
wouldn't let her go, let her in, 
           Am7    D7        G 
She wasn't good enough for him, 
C 
she was good at late night listening,  
                           G 
When he called her on the phone, 
 
 
 
(chorus) 
                 C               G - F#m - Em7 
That she wasn't good enough, for him, 
          G7             C   - Bm - Am 
For his family are his friends, 
                            D7 
He kept her out there on a limb, 
                 Am       G   D - D7 
Wouldn't let her go, let her in, 
            Am7   D7        C - G - Em7 - A7 
She wasn't good enough for him,
