[D] [D#] [E]
[G#] [C#m] I [B]
feel so useless [C] down [C#] here with no one to [F] love.
Though I've looked everywhere [C]
and I can't find me anybody [E] to love.
Could be a mother's [G#] care soon.
Oh, [C#] oh, oh, let [E] me [F#] love.
Oh,
[E] [C#]
let me [D] love.
[D#] [E]
Don't you know how hard [D#] it [C#m] is [B]
trying to live all [C] alone.
[C#] Every day I keep trying to move [F] forward.
But something is driving [Am] me [Dm] [C] away.
But it's something trying to hold [E] on to me.
And my world is [F#] [D#]
so
[C#] Don't you forget.
[F#]
[B] Oh, [C#] don't you forget me.
[D] [D#] [E] Well, I don't think I'm any [F] very [C#m] special [B] kind of person down here.
I know better.
[C] [C#] But I don't think you're gonna find anybody, not anybody,
[F] who can say that they tried like [C] I tried.
The worst you can say [E] all about me is that I've never satisfied.
