Lisa Curtis - Never Gave Up

[Intro]
D G D G

[Verse 1]

D G
Go ahead and get back at me for loving you
D G
Keep me up at night wondering if any of it was true
D
I know now you can’t love someone
G
Who doesn’t even love themself
D
I can’t forgive you
G
But I need to forgive myself

[Chorus]

D D7
Why did you have to do that?
G G
I would’ve taken you back
Em
But there was no reason
D
There’s no excuse
G A
You messed up a good thing like you always seem to do
D D7
And I was the person who always stayed
G G7
You made me the fool who would’ve done anything
G
I hope it was worth it
D
Throwing me away
G
But at least I never gave up
Em D Em D G
That was your job anyway-y-y mmmhmmm

D D

[Verse]

D G
Why couldn’t you have left me with the memories
D G
Of someone that I thought really loved me
D G
I would’ve died saying you were the right one at the wrong time
D
But you took that away too
G
Now I know I gave a good heart to the wrong guy

[Chorus]

D D7
Why did you have to do that?
G G
I would’ve taken you back
Em
But there was no reason
D
There’s no excuse
G A
You messed up a good thing like you always seem to do
D D7
And I was the person who always stayed
G G7
You made me the fool who would’ve done anything
G
I hope it was worth it
D
Throwing me away
G A
But at least I never gave up

[Bridge]

G A
I never wanted to hate you
D A G
Why couldn’t you just let me have some time?
G A
Of course it hurt cause I loved you at your lowest
D A G
And you left me at mine
G A D
You left me at mine

[Interlude]
