D                          Dsus2 
I made you laugh, I made you cry, 
                         G 
I made you open up your eyes 
     Asus 
Didn't I? 
D                          Dsus2 
I helped you open up your wings, 
                         G 
Your legs and many other things 
     Asus 
Didn't I? 
Em                                 Dsus2 
Am I the greatest bastard that you know, 
                          G 
The only one who lets you go, 
                         Asus                  
The one you hurt so much you can not bear? 
D                        Dsus2 
We were good when we were good, 
                          G     Asus  
When we were not misunderstood. 
D                                Dsus2 
You helped me love, you helped me live 
                              G 
You helped me learn how to forgive, 
     Asus 
Didn't you? 
D                         Dsus2 
Wish that I could say the same, 
                              G  
But when you left, you left the blame. 
     Asus 
Didn't you? 
Em                                Dsus2 
Am I the greatest bastard that you met, 
                           G 
The only one you can't forget, 
                               Asus 
Am I the one your truth's been waiting for? 
D                        Dsus2 
Am I just dreaming once again? 
                                G     Asus  
Some dreams are better when they end 
D                            Dsus2 
Just woke in bed, you were in my head 
                            G 
I was underground and in a dream 
                          Asus 
Pass this place I'm not suppose to be,  
D                         Dsus2 
And you were there waiting for me 
                                      G 
And, with a smile, you said It's been awhile 
                        Asus 
You asked have I had I seen her recently.  
Em                                Dsus2 
Am I the greatest bastard that you know? 
                              G 
When will we learn to let this go? 
                           Asus 
We fought so much we've broken all the chance!  
D                   Dsus2 
Letting go is not the same 
                         G    Asus 
As pushing someone else away. 
Bm             F#m      G         Asus 
So please don't let on you don't know me! 
Bm           F#m     G          Asus 
Please don't let on that I'm not here! 
Bm           F#m    G           Asus 
Please don't let on you don't love me, 
Bm              F#m 
Cause I know you do, 
G          Asus 
I know you do 
  (Bm F#m G Asus Bm)
