I Gave A Little And Lost A Lot easy guitar chords by

Verse 1
G

I had the finest woman

any man could hope to find

Her faith and trust had seen us through
C

so many troubled times

My friends were full of envy,
D

cause she treated me like a king

And I took her love for granted,
G

and I lost everything I'd call to say

I was working late,

she'd always understand

And that was my excuse I'd use
C

when I had other things planned

I came in one night to find myself alone
D

and some I knew

This was just a taste
G

of what she was going through
D
G

Now I gave a little and I lost a lot

I'm holding on to someone
C

I've no longer got

I was fooling around with the second best
D

and I had the cream of the crop

And I wound up giving a little,
G

and I lost a lot
D
G

And you men can heed this warning

if there's a good woman at your side

If you go half way
C

she'll meet you there and there,

she'll abide

If you can't do that,

then you'd best get your hat
D

and find your boat another dock

And you wind up giving a little
G

and you lose a lot
D
G

Now I gave a little and I lost a lot
D
G
C

Holding on to someone I no longer got

I was foolin' around with the second best
D

and I had a dream of the clock

And I wound up givin' a
G

little and I lost a lot
D
G

Now I gave a little and I lost a lot
D
G
C

I'm holdin' on to someone I no longer got

I was fooling around with

the second best,
D

and I had the cream of the crop

And I wound up giving a little,
G

and I lost a lot
D
G

Oh, you know I gave a little, and I lost a lot
D

Oh, I wound up giving a little,
G

and I lost a lot
D
G

You know I gave a little and I lost a lot

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    “I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.”

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    “I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    “I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    “Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    “This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!”

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    “It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    “I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
