[Intro]
F C Bb F
[Verse 1]
F C
It started out like a song
F A
We started quiet and slow
A7
With no surprise
F E7sus4 Dm9
And then one morning I woke
D7
To realize
Gm7 C
We had a good thing going
[Verse 2]
F C
It's not that nothing went wrong:
F A
Some angry moments, of course
A7
But just a few
F E7sus4 Dm9
And only moments, no more
D7
Because we knew
Gm7 C
We had this good thing going
[Bridge]
Cm F
And if I wanted too much

Bb
A mistake
G
At the time?
Am D
You never wanted enough
D7
All right, tough
G7
I don't make
C7
That a crime
[Verse 3]
F C
And while it's going along
F A

A7
Will wear away
F E7sus4 Dm9
We took for granted a lot
D7
But still I say:
Gm7
It could have kept on growing
C D
Instead of just kept on
Bb Gm
We had a good thing going
C F
Going, gone
