NC	             		
He wasn't there when I needed him
F    C
No, he was never around
     G
His reputation was preceding him
F        C
And he was out on the town
         G
It didn't matter if he let me down
F          C
I didn't care about the lies
       G
Now all I knew was that he loved me very much
F       C
He was my hero in disguise
Bb        F        C
I'm so pleased I never gave up on him
Bb                           F                       C
Oh well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did
Bb           F                         C         D
And everyone said you have to give him some time
F             G                         C
And I'm glad that I gave it to him cause now everything's fine

Now you see I never thought you’d be 
F          C
a constant person in my life
      G
And I don't think that you would be if 
F                 C
you’d have stayed with your ex wife
                G
I know you wouldn't but there is no need
F  C
No need to apologise
               G
Because I know you'll always love me very much
F               C
You are my hero in disguise
Bb        F        C
I'm so pleased I never gave up on him
Bb                           F                       C
Oh well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did
Bb           F                         C        D
And everyone said you have to give him some time
F             G                          C
And I'm glad that I gave it to him cause now everything's fine

You might have thought you didn't teach me much
F        C
But you taught me right from wrong
      G
And it was when you didn't keep in touch
F          C
Well it taught me to be strong
     G
And just in case you ever thought I would
F                C
I wouldn't change you for the world
        G
Because I know you'll always love me very much
F        C
I'll always be you're little girl
Bb        F        C
I'm so pleased I never gave up on him
Bb                           F                       C
Oh well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did
Bb           F                         C        D
And everyone said you have to give him some time
F             G                          C
And I'm glad that I gave it to him cause now everything's fine
