For What Its Worth

Tom : C
G C D Am Dm Em F

[Verse]
C Am F
We sent our postcards saying "Wish you were here"
C
Then made love under the boardwalk pier
Am F
I got it wrong and you started to cry
C G
I said I loved you, but it was a lie
Dm Em
You were gentle and I was rough
F C
I was talking big and acting tough
G Dm Em
Now I've forgotten your name, it was so long ago
F
When we were two young kids
C G C
No place to go, no place to go

[Verse]
Am F
We lost touch, I had the world to see
C
I didn't think of you, did you think of me?
Am F
When you fell in love, was he good and kind
C
Like I should have been for your first time?
G Dm Em
I should've got you a ring from the trinket store
F C
And drawn a heart with an arrow on the boardwalk wall
G Dm Em
Maybe got you a flower to weave in your hair
F
I should have done something that was tender
C G
To show that I cared, to show that I cared

[Chorus]
C Am G F
That's the way life sometimes goes
C Em F G
How things can change, nobody knows

[Instrumental]
C   Am   F   C   Am   F   C   G   Dm   Em   F   C   G   Dm   Em   F   C

[Verse]
Am F
For what it's worth and come what may
C
I'm feeling bad when I think of that day
Am F
Young love should be pure and true
C
I should have been so good for you
G Dm Em
Do you remember the kid who got it all wrong?
F C
Well, that kid's now a man and he's writing this song
G Dm Em
I'm composing these words, trying to tell you somehow
F
I didn't love you then
C G
But I love you now, I love you now

[Chorus]
C Am G F
And that's the way life sometimes goes
C Em F G
How things can change, nobody knows
Am G F
Nobody knows, nobody knows
C F G
How things can change, nobody knows
