Mark Erelli - My Best Was Just Not Good Enough (For You)
[Verse 1]
G C
The sky went black, the world stopped turning round
D G
As you took my hand and sat me down
C
Remember how I cried when you broke the news
G D G
My best just was not good enough for you
[Verse 2]
C
So sad, you said, it had to end like this
D G
As you turned to leave you blew me one last kiss
C
And I let you go, what was I supposed to do
G D G
When my best just was not good enough for you
[Lead Break]
[Bridge]
Bm C
I can't say I ain't learned nothing at all
A7 D
You showed me just how hard one heart can fall
[Verse 3]
C
Was there something that I might have tried
D G
Or maybe you just can't be satisfied
C
Either way I guess we'll never know the truth
G D G
My best just was not good enough for you
G D G
My best just was not good enough for you
[Verse 1]

The sky went black, the world stopped turning round
