A E A
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
F#m D
Perfect situations must go wrong
A E D
But this has never yet prevented me
Bm D E
Wanting far too much for far too long
A E A
Looking back I could have played it differently
F#m D
Won a few more moments, who can tell?
A E D
But it took time to understand the man
Bm E
Now at least I know, I know him well
[Chorus]
A
Wasn't it good? (Oh so good)
D
Wasn't he fine? (Oh so fine)
Dm
Isn't it madness
A Dm
He can't be mine?
A E F#m
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
B7 A
More security
E D E A
He needs his fantasy and freedom. I know him so well
[Verse]
A E A
No one in your life is with you constantly
F#m D
No one is completely on your side
A E D
And though I move my world to be with him
Bm D E
Still the gap between us is too wide
A E A
Looking back I could have played it differently
F#m D
Learned about the man before I fell
A E D
But I was ever so much younger then
Bm D E
Now at least I know, I know him well
[Chorus]
A
Wasn't it good? (Oh So good)
D
Wasn't he fine? (Oh So fine)
Dm
Isn't it madness
A
He won't be mine?
F#m B
Didn't I know how it would go if I knew from the start
E A
Why am I falling apart?
D
Wasn't it good? Wasn't he fine?
Dm
Isn't it madness
A Dm
He won't be mine?
A E F#m
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
B7 A
More security
E D E A
He needs his fantasy and freedom. I know him so well
Dm A
...It took time to understand him
E A
I know him so well
