You Never Miss A Real Good Thing (Till He Says Goodbye)
By Crystal Gayle


G                              C
Sittin’ on the bed a-thinkin’, thinkin’ that my heart is sinkin’
G                          D
Everyday the world goes by with you gone
G                            C
All I do is dream about you, livin’ ain’t a life without you
G                              D            G  
Honey can’t you find it in you to come back home


Chorus:
C                               G
You never miss a real good thing or know what it means
D                              G
You never see the light of day till it goes away
C                               G
You never want a drink of water till the well runs dry
D                               C  D                G
You never miss a real good thing   till he says goodbye



I guess you must’ve had your reasons maybe you were right in leavin’
I know you never found yourself in what we had
And honey, you’ve a right to blame me maybe even time would change me
But can’t you see the good that’s in me and overlook the bad
