Second Best

Bb7M                    Cm7     F7      Bb7M  Cm7  F7
I'll never forget how stupid in love I felt
Bb7M                    Cm7     F7      Bb7M  Cm7  F7
I'll always regret how I couldn't ever tell
         D7                       G7
That you walked a little faster, left me behind
Cm7                     Bbm6
Kissed me with somebody else in mind
Dm7
I loved you so much
        G7
That I settled for less

Cm7
Oh, you were my everything
F7                 Bb7M  Cm7  F7
I was your second best

Bb7M             Cm7            F7       Bb7M    Cm7  F7
Lying awake, I'd watch as you'd dream at night (dream at night)
Bb7M                Cm7          F7      Bb7M  Cm7  F7
Nightingale singing half-hearted lullabies
          D7                      G7
Well, you swung me around in that mid summer dance
Cm7                     Ebm6
Held me in close as you thought of your past
Dm7
I love way too much
         G7
Oh, this hurts to confess

Cm7
Oh, you were my everything
F7                 Bb7M  A#7  D7
I was your second best

       Gm7                 Cm7
You've given me nothing to miss
          F7                        Bb7M
Honestly, life has been much better since
D7  Gm7
I spoke to you last
Cm7
Why am I still wondering
                           F7
If I stand a chance or if you'd have me back?

Bb7M               Cm7        F7   Bb7M  Cm7  F7
Everyone warned me you were a bad idea
Bb7M
I never listen
Cm7    F7         Bb7M
Maybe I will next year
Cm7  F7   D7                      G7
When I've walked a little further into my life
Cm7                Bbm6
Fallen in love and left you behind
Dm7                       G7
But I'm still a little in love with this mess

Cm7
Oh, you were my everything
F7                   Bb7M  Cm7  F7
I'm just your second best

Bb7M  Cm7
Mm
F7  Bb7M
