[Intro]
Eb Bb Bb/A Gm Dm F - - - -
[Verse 1]
Bb F7/C Bb/D Bb Bb/A
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Gm Gm/F Eb
Perfect situations must go wrong
Bb/F F7/Eb Eb Eb/D
But this has never yet prevented me
Cm Eb/Bb F7
Wanting far too much for far too long
Bb F7/C Bb/D Bb Bb/A
Looking back, I could have played it differently
Gm Gm/F Eb
Won a few more moments, who can tell?
Bb/F F7/Eb Eb Eb/D
But it took time to understand the man
Cm Eb/Bb F7
Now at least I know, I know him well
[Chorus]
Bb Eb/Bb
Wasn't it good (oh so good), wasn't he fine (oh so fine)
Ebm/Bb Bb Ebm/Gb
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine
Bb F7/A Gm C7
But in the end, he needs a little bit more than me; more security
Bb/F F/Eb Eb Eb/F F (Bb)
He needs fantasy and freedom I know him so well
Bb Bb/Eb Eb F
[Verse 2]
Bb F7/C Bb/D Bb Bb/A
No one in your life is with you constantly
Gm Gm/F Eb
No one is completely on your side
Bb/F F7/Eb Eb Eb/D
And though I move my world to be with him
Cm Eb/Bb F7
Still the gap between us is too wide
Bb F7/C Bb/D Bb Bb/A
Looking back, I could've played it differently,
Gm Gm/F Eb
Learned about the man before I fell
Bb/F F7/Eb Eb Eb/D
But I was ever so much younger then
Cm Eb/Bb F7
Now at least I know, I know him well
[Chorus]
Bb Eb/Bb
Wasn't it good (oh so good), wasn't he fine (oh so fine)
Ebm/Bb Bb
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine
Em7 Gm
Didn't I know, how it would go
Gm/F C C/Bb
If I knew from the start
F/A Gm7 F Bb
Why am I falling apart
Eb/Bb
Wasn't it good (oh so good), wasn't he fine
Ebm/Bb Bb Ebm/Gb
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine
Bb F7/A Gm C7/E
But in the end, he needs a little bit more than me; more security
Bb/F F/Eb Eb
He needs fantasy and freedom
F7sus4 F7 C7/E
I know him so well
Ebm6 Bb/D C7 Cm7
It took time to understand him
F7sus4 F7 Bb
I know him so well
