	        Intro:  C  F  C  Dm  G7    
    
C           Fmaj7    
  I did my best    
          Em7               Am7    
But I guess my best wasn't good enough    
       F                 G/F            Em7      Am7    
'Cause here we are back where we were before    
       Dm          G  G/F    
Seems nothing ever changes    
      Esus     E7/G#   Am    
We're back to being strangers    
Dm              Cadd2/E    
Wondering if we are to stay    
    F               G13  G   
Or head on out the door    
     
C       G/C          Bb/C          C7             F   
  Just once can we figure out what we keep doing wrong    
Dm      G/F                  Em7   Am    
Why we never last for very long    
             Dm             G7    
What are we doing wrong    
C      G/C         Bb/C            C7/E              F    
  Just once can we find a way to finally make it right    
Dm              G7                 Em7      Am    
Make the magic last for more than just one night    
Dm                                             
If we could just get to it    
  F                      G13 G7            C  F  C  G7    
I know we could break through it    
     
I gave my all    
But I think my all may have been too much    
Lord knows we're not getting anywhere    
Seems we're always blowing    
Whatever we've got going    
And seems that time was all we've got    
We haven't got a break    
     
Just once can we figure out what we keep doing wrong    
Why the good times never last for very long    
What are we going wrong    
Just once can we find a way to finally make it right    
Make the magic last for more than just one night    
I know we could break through it    
If we could just get to it    
     
      Ab               Fm7    
Just once I want to understand    
Bbm           Eb13             Ab    
Why it always comes back to goodbye    
B                     G#m    
Why can't we get ourselves in hand    
C#m7          B/D#    
And admit to one another    
Emaj7             B/D#    
Were no good without each other    
C#m7              B/D#    
Take the best, and make it better    
Em7             A13  A7    
Find a way to stay together    
    
D     A/D        C/D            Dadd2    D7/F#  G         
Just once can we find a way to finally make it right    
Em              A7                F#m      Bm7      
Make the magic last for more than just one night    
   Em                             
I know we could break through it    
   A13                 A7    (D A/D  G/D) rpt x2                  
If we could just get to it    
         D    
Whoa oh    
           Edim/Bb   A13  
We could get to it    
        D    Em7  D/F#  G  A13 A  B    
Just once.
