The Greatest Bastard Chords

   
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)x2 Bm
Somewhere
