G
I was there when she fell for the first time
A
I picked her up and saw the
D
heartache in her eyes
I guess I knew right then,
G
how little chance I had to win
A
D
But can't nobody say I didn't try
She was nineteen years old
G
and already lonely
A
D
Lord only knows how many men she tried
Why she went from man to man
G
I'll never understand
A
D
But can't nobody say I didn't try
G
D
I thought that I was just a man to tangle
A
D
and to save from the wild side of life
G
But the wild side had already

E
Livin' way out on the edge,
A
that's what she likes
D
I read something in a book
G
once about women
A
D
Like a rose, they last while they last
But she only blooms at night,
G
there under the neon light
A
D
But can't nobody say, I didn't try
She only blooms at night
G
They're under the neon light
A
But can't nobody say I
D
C
D
didn't try
You
Can't Nobody Say I Didn't Try
