Never Meant To Be

C   G   F   C   F   C   G   

Am   Em   Am G Am   F   C   G   C

[Verse 1]
        C               G         
In the darkness of the night, all 
             F             C
I hear is a ringing in my ears
       F                  C       
And my eyes are full of tears that
          G
 I can't see
          Am                  Em  
And I'll see comfort in bad 
           Am          G        
places, and I'm trying to forget the
Am
 faces
         F                 C      
But the many friends will say, 
          G              C
that it was never meant to be

[Chorus]
 C                                 
And you can always write it off by 
 G                   F            
saying, that it was never meant to
  C
 be
  F                          C    
Though you once told me we'd 
        G
always be as one.
              Am               Em 
And then you wish me a better day,
         Am        G    Am
 as you turn your back away
           F              C       
Then you write it off by saying, 
        G              C
"it was never meant to be."

[Verse 2]
 C                             
Well, it left some damage in my 
  G                    F          
wake, but I have the liberty to take
C
 the time to say
F         C              G
"It ain't all my fault alone”
              Am                
I've been deceived and I've been 
           Em        Am    G     
forced to leave, my anger and my 
   Am
greaving
Continues after the ad
      F                    C      
In a heart that’s still believing,
        G               C
 it was always meant to be."

[Chorus]
 C                                 
And you can always write it off by 
 G                   F            
saying, that it was never meant to
  C
 be
  F                          C    
Though you once told me we'd 
        G
always be as one.
              Am               Em 
And then you wish me a better day,
         Am        G    Am
 as you turn your back away
           F              C       
Then you write it off by saying, 
        G              C
"it was never meant to be."

[Verse 2]
C                                  
You have turned your beauty and 
G                   F             
your charme into a weapon of badly 
 C
harm, the man you said,
  F                          C
Was the best friend you've been 
            G
knowing
              Am               Em 
Then, your ways are justified, by 
         Am        G    Am
stubborn foolish pride.
           F              C 
And the price is payed by me, 
              G              C
because that’s the way it’s meant to
 be.

[Chorus]
C                                  
And you can always write it off by 
G                   F             
saying, that it was never meant to 
 C
be
  F                          C    
Though you once told me we'd 
        G
always be as one.
              Am               Em 
And then you wish me a better day,
         Am        G    Am
 as you turn your back away
           F              C       
Then you write it off by saying, 
        G              C
"it was never meant to be."

[Verse 3]
C                               
There is no dignity in remaining; 
   G                   F          
love ain't worth retaining, 
    C
anymore
  F                          C    
So let’s just do each other in.
        G

              Am               Em 
And leave the sadness and the 
         Am        G    Am
fury, the judgement of a jury
           F              C       
And the signature that’s saying, 
        G              C
"it was never meant to be."

[Chorus]
 C

              Am               Em 
And then you wish me a better day,
         Am        G    Am
 as you turn your back away
           F              C       
Then you write it off by saying,
