I can't sing like Marv[G]in Gaye, no
I can'[C]t play that grand piano
I never [G]was at the top of my class
I never [C]threw no touchdown pass
All I [G]got is cut glass to stand on
Cuz I never [C]planned on getting my hands on
No kind of [G]cash or a woman like you
That could [C]last the whole life through
But now that you'r[A]e here, it seems s[D]o clear
Now I ain'[G]t got no southern mansion
And I ain'[C]t much good at slow dancing
I never [G]swam the English Channel
And people they [C]say I'm hard to handle
Cuz I'm like [G]a candle in the wind
But where you [C]end is where I begin
And I never [G]win cuz I'm good at losing
And thank the [C]Lord I'm good at choosing
Cuz now that you'r[A]e here, it seems s[D]o clear
When the [G]lights go down and the music plays
I [C]feel like a king that could sing for days
I [G]know sometimes that we don't always[D] agree[Dsus][D]
They [G]scream for more and the more I give
It [C]takes a toll on the way we live
[G]Please forgive me baby and try and [D]see. Yeah try and [A]see
Please try and [C]see
That you get the best of [G]me
Now I didn'[G]t make no reservations
And I didn'[C]t plan no great vacation
Cuz I've bee[G]n chasing rain drops falling
Running from [C]love when it keeps calling
And I know you [G]think I'm just playing the field
But let me [C]show you girl what's real
Cuz I'm al[G]l in like a crazy gambler
And though I [C]don't have all the answers
Now that you'r[A]e here, it seems s[D]o cle[Dsus]ar[D]
When the [C]lights go down and the music plays
I [G]feel like a king that could sing for days
I [C]know sometimes that we don't alway[D]s agre[Dsus]e[D]
They [G]scream for more and the more I give
It [C]takes a toll on the life we live
[G]Please forgive me baby and try and [D]see. Yeah try and [A]see
Please try and [C]see
