Was there something I was gonna tell you?
           Am      D                 G  G
Was there something I was gonna say?
     G         G          G      G
If I had it, I guess I forgot it
      Am        D             G   G
It's gone, it's all slipped away

C       D         G                   C
  Oh my love, was s'posed to make you happy

  Oh my love, I was s'posed to make you happy

[harmonica & dobro solo, same chords as one verse]

Oh my love, was s'posed to make you happy
S'posed to make you happy all the time
Oh my love, I was s'posed to make you happy
S'posed to make you happy all the time

Is there something you're willing to wait for?
Is there someone you long to be?
Is there something I can do to change it?
Didn't it used to be me?

Oh my love, was s'posed to make you happy
S'posed to make you happy all the time
Oh my love, I was s'posed to make you happy
S'posed to make you happy all the time
      C                   D             G    G
I was s'posed to make you happy all the time

C  D  G  C   C  D  G  G.
