This Ain't A Love Song

Intro [E] | [B] | [D] | [A] | [am] | [E] | [B]

I s[E]hould have seen it coming when the roses died, [B]
s[D]hould have seen the end of the summer in your eyes [A]
[am]                                  [E]                [B]
I should have listened when you said good night you really meant good bye
[E]Baby ain't it funny, how you ever learn to fa[B]ll
[D]You're really on your knees, when you think yo[A]u're standing tall
[am]                       [E]                 [B]
But only fools are 'know-it-alls' and I played that fool for you

[A]                               [c#m]                           [B]
I cried and I cried there were nights that I died for you baby
[E]                                 [c#m]                            [B]    -> Lick 1
I tried and I tried to deny that your love drove me crazy, baby

[E]                                       [B]                   [c#m]             [A]
If the love that I got for you is gone, if the river I cried ain't that long
[E]Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong, t[B]his ain't a love s[A]ong

Baby, I thought you and me would stand the test of time
Like we got away with the perfect crime,
But, we were just a legend in my mind I guess that I was blind
Remember those nights dancing at the masquerade,
The clowns wore smiles that wouldn't fade
You and I were the renegades, some things never change

It made me so mad 'cause I wanted it bad for us baby
Now it's so sad that whatever we had, ain't worth saving. -> Lick 1

> Lick 2

If the pain that I'm feeling so strong, is the reason that I'm holding on
Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong - this ain't a love song -> Lick 2
