Chords for Damien Rice - The Greatest Bastard @ Seoul Jazz Festival 2014

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ So, uh, _ _ there's a _ _ new record which is almost finished. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ It was about [Em] time, yes, that's very true.
[N] _ _ _ _ _
Everything at the right time.
_ _ _ And, uh, _ _ this is one of the songs.
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ You made her laugh and made her [D]
cry,
Made her open up [G] your eyes, _ _
_ _ [E] didn't I? _ _ _
_ I helped you open out [D] your wings,
Your legs and many other [G] things, _ _ _ _
[A] didn't I?
Am _ [E]
I the greatest bastard that you [D] know?
The only one who let you [G] go?
The one you hurt [A] so much you cannot bear?
_ _ _ [D] _
_ We were good when we were good,
We were not misunderstood.
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ [D] _ You had me love, you helped [F#] me live,
You had me learn how [G] to forgive, _ _ [E] _ didn't you?
_ _ _ [D] _ I wish that I could say the [F#] same,
When you left, you [G] left a blade,
_ _ _ [A] _ Didn't you?
[E] _
_ [Em] Am I the greatest bastard that you met?
[D] The only one you can [G] forgive?
Am I the one your [A] truth's been waiting for? _
_ _ _ [D] _ Or am I just dreaming once again?
Some dreams [F#] are better [G] than they end.
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Some make [D]
it,
_ _ Mistake [G] it,
Some force [E] it,
Some will fake [Bm]
it.
I [F#m] never meant to let you [G] down.
_ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ [D] _ Some fret it,
_ Forget [G] it,
Some [E] ruin it,
Some regret _
[Bm] it.
I never [F#m] _ meant to let you [G] down.
_ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ We learned to wag and tuck [D] our tails,
We learned to win and [G] then to fail, _ _ _ [A] _ didn't we?
_ _ _ [D] We learned that lovers love to sing,
And that losers [G] love to cling, _ _ [A] _ didn't we? _
_ [Em] Am I the greatest bastard [E] that you met?
When we learned to let [G] this go?
We fought so [A] much, we've broken all the charm,
_ _ [D] _ _ But letting go is not the same as pushing someone else [G] away. _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [Em] _ _
[B] So please [A] don't let [F#m] off,
[Em] You don't know me.
[B] _ Please [A] don't let [F#m] off,
I'm [G] not here.
_ [B] _
Please [A] don't let [F#m] off,
You [G] don't [Em] love me,
Cause I know [D] you do.
[G] I [A] know. _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ Some [D]
make it,
_ _ Mistake it,
[G] Some force [E] it,
Some will fake [Bm] it.
I [F#m] never meant to let you [G] down.
_ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ [E] _ _
She's [D] ready,
_ _ Forget [G] it,
Some [A] ruin it,
Some regret it.
[Bm] _ But I [F#m] never meant to let you [G] down.
I never meant _ to let [Em] you,
I never _ [D] meant to let you [G]
down.
[E] I never [A] meant _ _
_ _ [D] _ to let you _
_ _ _ _ [G] down.
[E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ You didn't,
[G] _
_ You didn't,
[D] _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [G] _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
