Em                     D
I gave you everything, I watched you walk away
 C
You really left us in the dirt,
I really thought you'd stay
Em
You couldn't feel the pain, but you would watch
     C
me bleed

I never thought I'd see the day that
                   Em
I would watch you leave
D                    C
I just watched you leave

Chorus:
             Em                 D
And now you curse my name, you think
I did you dirty
       C
Honey, I can't say I didn't see this comin'
         Em                       D
Now you hate me, you'll never replace me
                    C
Darlin', you might think you can, but you'll
never erase me
                        Em                   D
But you left me in the dust, did all that I could
              C
A little too late for you to call me up
                 Em                D
I knew that you would, it's understood
            C
Me and you both know (me and you both know)
                Em
That we had it good (that we had it good)

Heard you been showin' up and you been showin' out
Funny how the rumors fly in a small town
I know you think of us and what we used to be
I never thought I'd see the day that
I would watch you leave
I just watched you leave

Chorus:
And now you curse my name, you think I did you dirty
Honey, I can't say I didn't see this comin'
Now you hate me, you'll never replace me
Darlin', you might think you can,
but you'll never erase me
But you left me in the dust, did all that I could
A little too late for you to call me up
I knew that you would, it's understood
Me and you both know (Me and you both know)
We had it good

And now you curse my name, you think
I did you dirty
Honey, I can't say I didn't see this comin'
Now you hate me, you'll never replace me
Darlin', you might think you can
You left me in the dust, did all that I could
A little too late for you to call me up
I knew that you would, it's understood
Me and you both know (Me and you both know)
That we had it good (Me and you both know)
We had it good (Me and you both know)
