Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
You're a [Dm]livin'
walkin' dream
You're the [G]best I've ever seen,
Oh God I [C]wanted you.
I've often [Dm]dreamed what I would do,

[Verse 2]
If I could [G]give myself to you,
Oh God I [C]wanted to.
But up 'til [Am]now you've not
been free to be
[Em]Foolin' around with the likes of me.

[Verse 3]
But it's [D]changed now,
[Dm]though it's [Bb]strange how,
He's the one that ar
[G]ranged it now.
But he's a [C]poor [G]damned [Am]fool
'Cause he [Dm]went and let you [G]go now.

[Verse 4]
Just [C]a poor [G]damned [Am]fool.
He [Dm]never will know [G]now.
[C]Maybe [G]someday [Am]he'll be sad.
[F]I say that that's too[Dm] bad,

[Verse 5]
[C]He never knew how [Am]much he had.
I'm [F]glad I [G]got [C]you now.
Yes I've [Dm]had my ups
and downs
As I've been [G]ramblin' around
And I'll [C]be candid.

[Verse 6]
I could [Dm]not believe my eyes
When I [G]fi nally realized
Just what that [C]man did.

[Verse 7]
[C]
Yes I've [Am]heard 'bout
finders keepers
And how [Em]losers are the weepers, it's [D]OK,
I [Dm]know it's my [Bb]lucky day
Still [Gm]I just got[G] to say...
That he's a [C]poor [G]damned

[Verse 8]
[Am]fool
'Cause he [Dm]went and let you [G]go now.
Just [C]a poor [G]damned [Am]fool.
He [D]never will [Dm]know [G]now.
[C]Maybe [G]someday

[Verse 9]
[Am]he'll be sad.
[F]I say that t[Dm]hat's too bad,
[C]He never knew how [Am]much he had.
I'm [F]glad I [G]got you now.
[C]

[Verse 10]
Oh [Bb]how I'd love to hear you say
You're [Eb]glad that it worked out this way
And [C]you'll forget about yesterday
'Cause you [F]feel so good.

[Verse 11]
It's worked out [Dm]real good.
You make me [G]feel so [Dm]good.
[G][C]
[Am][Em][Dm][Gm]
[G]I've been [Dm]tryin' to find a way to cope
With [G]grasping straws And
fallen hopes.

[Verse 12]
But he's [C]made a way
And now [Dm]his misfortune is my gain.
[G]Though for now it gives you pain
It'll [C]fade away
[Am]And you'll

[Verse 13]
find that as the years roll by
The [Em]memories of the time you cried
Will be [D]laid away
[Dm]Yes, they'll [Bb]fade [G]away

[Verse 14]
[G]And you'll forget that [C]poor
damned [Am]fool
'Cause he [Dm]went and let you go [G]now.
Just a [C]poor damned [Am]fool.
He [Dm]never will know [G]now.
May[C]be someday

[Verse 15]
[Am]he'll be sad.
[F]I s[Am]ay that that's to[Dm]o bad
[C]He never knew how [Am]much he had.
I'm [F]glad I [G]got you now.
[C]

[Verse 16]
He was a [Dm]poor [G]damn foo[C]l.
