Capo 1
D
Used to think my life was charmed, everything was grand
D A
Well I was living like a king but in a castle made of sand
G D G
All I took for granted was all I had to lose
D A D
Well I was reachin' for the brass ring when I should've been holding you
Chorus:
G
Well I almost hit the big time, I almost had it all
D A
Then you left me lonely near the top, that's a mighty long way to fall
D G
I'm just barely gettin' by, it's the best that I can do
D A D
Well I almost hit the big time then I took a spill, it's been all downhill, baby since I lost you
Well I thought you were so naive when you said to me
Money does not matter, the best things in life are free
when you left I was riding high but as soon as you weren't around
I found out how right you were as it all came crashing down
Chorus
