Verse 1:
F C Bb/C F
I've never known
Bb F C Bb/C F
Many sunshiny days
Bb F C Bb/C F
And things seldom work out
Bb F C Bb/C F F7
They just don't come my way
Bb Dm/A Gm7
But I can be happy
Gm7/C F C Bb/C F
Just to say I've known you
Bb F C Bb/C F
And to see you each morning
Bb (Bb) Am Gm F [N.C.]
Makes my day seem less blue
Chorus:
Gm
[1: For 2: And how] a false-hearted lover
Am Bb Am Gm F
And a fair-weather friend
Dm F/C
Took all I own from me
Bb [N.C.]
And sometimes
Am Gm F C Bb/C F
Sometimes you just can't win
Bridge:
Gm
If I could live my life over
C7 F
If I could do it again
Gm
I'd never chase women
C7 F
I'd try so hard not to sin
Dm
But one thing's for certain
Cm F7 Bb
I'd stay away from her door
F7/A G7
And you'd never find me
Gm7/C
Beggin' for more
Verse 2:
Now that it's finished
My time is fast running out
I know I could never
Change my life about
What was started is ending
My sight is fast growing dim
But I cannot forget her
And I still think of him
[repeat chorus]
Coda:
F7 Bb [N.C.]
I try so hard but sometimes
Am Gm F C Bb/C F [end cold]
Sometimes you just can't win
