  Tell me what she has that I don’t
Bm             G             D
  Why you were so fast to let go of us

When it was my heart
you didn’t want it

 Why wasn’t I cast in your show?

All my friends are saying it’s

Wish I could believe them

A love that is perfect

A love I deserved yeah

A love that I gave

I got excuses

And you got to use this

Leave me in the dust with nothing

 Tell me why I wasn’t enough
