The Greatest Bastard Chords & Lyrics by Damien Rice
The Greatest Bastard
guitar chords lyrics
D Dsus2
I made you laugh, I made you cry,
G
I made you open up your eyes
Asus
Didn't I?
D Dsus2
I helped you open up your wings,
G
Your legs and many other things
Asus
Didn't I?
Em Dsus2
Am I the greatest bastard that you know,
G
The only one who lets you go,
Asus
The one you hurt so much you can not bear?
D Dsus2
We were good when we were good,
G Asus
When we were not misunderstood.
D Dsus2
You helped me love, you helped me live
G
You helped me learn how to forgive,
Asus
Didn't you?
D Dsus2
Wish that I could say the same,
G
But when you left, you left the blame.
Asus
Didn't you?
Em Dsus2
Am I the greatest bastard that you met,
G
The only one you can't forget,
Asus
Am I the one your truth's been waiting for?
D Dsus2
Am I just dreaming once again?
G Asus
Some dreams are better when they end
D Dsus2
Just woke in bed, you were in my head
G
I was underground and in a dream
Asus
Pass this place I'm not suppose to be,
D Dsus2
And you were there waiting for me
G
And, with a smile, you said It's been awhile
Asus
You asked have I had I seen her recently.
Em Dsus2
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
G
When will we learn to let this go?
Asus
We fought so much we've broken all the chance!
D Dsus2
Letting go is not the same
G Asus
As pushing someone else away.
Bm F#m G Asus
So please don't let on you don't know me!
Bm F#m G Asus
Please don't let on that I'm not here!
Bm F#m G Asus
Please don't let on you don't love me,
Bm F#m
Cause I know you do,
G Asus
I know you do
(Bm F#m G Asus)x2 Bm
Somewhere
