Bad Love Story
K. Kristofferson
Album: Surreal Thing


INTRO: C  F  Bb  F

      F
Once again you tried to show me
               Bb       F
What my eyes refused to see
       C                                  F      C
In the lines between the painful scene we're in
         F
With the silence fallin' cold
              Bb      F
On a world of make believe
       C                               F
In the ending that I still don't understand


CHORUS:
       Bb                       F
It's a bad love story that I've had to learn by heart
            C                                 F
'Cause I've lived these lines so many times before
           Bb                                F
And it's a shame the way the same old ending still tears me apart
          C                           F             
Where the lady still don't love me anymore


INTRO


I can see the truth before me
Like a mirror on the wall
With a crack or two for every fool I've been
And I see the lady wait
For her countdown curtain call
And it's lookin' like the place I came in


CHORUS

       Bb                                F
It's a shame the way the same old ending still tears me apart
          C                           F      Bb   F  C  F
Where the lady still don't love me anymore
