Biography:
James Grant's career began in the early eighties, when he formed Friends Again with Chris Thompson (The Bathers). Although short-lived, their influence was huge, helping to define the emerging sound of the Scottish bands that followed them.
It was in Love and Money that James found more widespread recognition; four albums, several hit singles, a world-wide following and silver discs in the UK helped seal his reputation as one of the best songwriters in the country.

[Verse 1]
D G
I tried to make you happy
D G
Gave you everything I could
D G
I just wanted to hold you
D G
Wanted to take care of you
D G
Maybe you misunderstood
A C G
Maybe it was all just a bad dream
D A
What did I do to make you so mean?

D G
I thought that you were so beautiful
D G
And I tried to make you see
D G
When I was with you
D G
I was in a better place
D G
Where were you when you were with me?
A C G
Maybe it’s some place I’ve never seen
D A
What did I do to make you so mean?

In the velvet darkness
D
Thought I’d found my wild orchid
G A
In the velvet darkness
[Verse 3]
D G
I thought that I had divined the shape of your soul
D G
But it’s clear to me I will never know
D G
I will never know
A C G
But you showed me that I’m well out of that scene
D A
What did I do to you to make you so mean?
[Outro]
D G
There is no art, no art so dark

Or mystery so deep
D G
As the human heart
D G
There is no art, no art so dark
D G
Or mystery so deep
D G
As the human heart
