Am           E           Am     
I'm told the case is now closed 
Gm7      C          Fmaj7 E7
so I can come to my senses
Am           E          Am  E 
But when the question is posed
Am  Gm7         C
 I'll have this meager defense

Fmaj7 C           Em         Bb
I was hoping that you'd know better 
than that
I was hoping but you're an amateur
I was hoping that you'd know better
     D        Bb      D   E7
But I've been wrong before

Am         E          Am   Gm7 
Despite conclusions I drew 
        C            Fmaj7  E7
there was a chance you'd surprise me
Am           E         Am  E Am
And you'd be better than you  
  Gm7          C
'cause I'd have left otherwise
