Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][G][C][F][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]Ah,
loving you is easy, you are [F]on my [C]side
We [G]play the game strictly to our [C]rules
We led the field, a [F]love af[C]fair
Which [G]made all other lovers [C]fools

[Verse 2]
[E]Oh
How can you [F]ever [Am]let me [G]down? [Em](how)
How can [E]you [F]ever [Am]let me
[G]down? [E](how)
How can you [F]ever [Am]let me [G]down?
These [Am]promises [G]are mad[Am]e for
[G]us [Am](oh-o[G]h)[Am]

[Verse 3]
We [C]promised that we'd always
have time [F]for each [C]other
[G]Whenever I needed you'd be [C]there
We promised to be true,
there'd [F]be no [C]other
We [G]promised that for ever we would [C]care

[Verse 4]
[E]Oh
How can you [F]ever [Am]let me
[G]down? [Em](how)
How can [E]you [F]ever [Am]let me [G]down? [E](how)
How can you [F]ever [Am]let me [G]down?
These [Am]promises [G]are mad[Am]e for
[G]us [Am](oh-o[G]h)[Am][C]
We [F]had to change

[Verse 5]
[G]
Oh, but you [F]stayed [C]the same
You [F]wouldn't [G]change
Oh, what a [F]shame
[C]

[Verse 6]
'Cause loving you's not easy,
you're not [F]on my [C]side
We [G]play a game with two sets of [C]rules
We lead the field in a [F]love affair
[C]Ah,[G] strictly meant for foo[C]ls

[Verse 7]
[Em]Oh[E]
Why did you [F]ever [Am]let m[G]e
down? (now)
Why did [Em]you [F]ever l[Am]et me
[G]down? [E](now)
Why did you [F]ever [Am]let me [G]down?
Those [Am]promises [G]were mad[Am]e for
[G]us [Am](oh-o[G]h)[Am][C]

[Verse 8]
You never have any [F]time for [C]me
[G]Whenever I need you,
you're not [C]there
You've never been true
and it's [F]plain [C]to see
The [G]fact is you never really [C]cared

[Verse 9]
[Em]Oh[E]
Why did you [F]ever [Am]let me
[G]down? [E](now)
Why did you [F]ever [Am]let me
[G]down? (now)
[E]Why did you [F]ever [Am]let me [G]down?
Those [Am]promises [G]we mad[Am]e for
us (oh-oh)
[G][Am][G][Am][C]
