[C] [Am] [Em] [F] [C] [Am] [Em] [F]
[C]I found a [Am]guy, told [Em]me I was a [F]star
[C]He held the[Am]door, held m[Em]y hand in the[F]dark
And he’s [Am]perfect on [Em]paper but he’s [F]lying to my face
Does he [Am]think that I’m the [Em]kinda girl who [F]needs to be saved


[C] [Am] [Em] [F]
And there’s [C]one more [Am]boy he’s [Em]from my [F]past
We [C]fell in [Am]love but it [Em]didn’t [F]last
‘Cause the se[Am]cond I fi[Em]gure it out he [F]pushes me away
And I [Am]won’t fight for [Em]love if you won’t [F]meet me halfway
And [G]I say that I’m through but [Gm]this song’s still for you


[F]All I [G]want is love that [Am]lasts
Is all I want too much to [F]ask
Is it [G]something wrong [Am]with me
[F]All I [G]want is a good [Am]guy
Are my expectations far too [F]high
Try my [G]best but what can [C]I say
All I h[B]ave is my[A]self at the [G]end of the [F]day
[G]Shouldn’t that be enough for[C]me[B] [A] [G] [F]


[C]Ooh [B]Ooh [A]Ooh [G] [F]Ooh Ooh
And I [C]miss the [Am]days
When I was [Em]young and [F]naïve
I thought the [C]perfect [Am]guy would come [Em]and find [F]me
[G]Now happy ever after it don’t come [Gm]so [A]easily


[F]All I [G]want is love that [Am]lasts
Is all I want too much to [F]ask
Is it [G]something wrong [Am]with me
[F]All I [G]want is a good [Am]guy
Are my expectations far too [F]high
Try my [G]best but what can I [C]say
All I [B]have is [A]myself at the [G]end of th[F]e day
An[A]d all I want is for that to be o[C]kay[B] [A] [G] [F]
