C F C
I've tried everything I know to make you happy
D7 G7
Never knew someone could be so hard to please
C F
Loving you is hard and I'm not sure I'll make it
G7 C
But at least I've learned how to stand on my own two knees
F C
I've still got my pride it's just that I misplaced it
D7 G7
Anyway it's better lost then no one sees
C F
Maybe I'm not strong enough right now to hold you
G7 C
But at least I've learned how to stand on my own two knees
G7 C
It wasn't long ago you had me crawling
F C G7
Oh but look how far I've come can't you see
C F
Well I know I'm still not walking tall but I'm trying
G7 C
And at least I've learned how to stand on my own two knees
F
Yes I know I'm still not walking tall but I'm trying
G7 C
And at least I've learned how to stand on my own two knees
