[verse 1]
G Bm A D
She was a friend of a friend of mine, I noticed her and she passed me by,
G Bm A
she didn't even look me in the eye
G Bm A D
I've tried to think of things to say, bought some wine, but she looked away,
G Bm A
I didn't even talk to her that night
[chorus]
G Bm A D G Bm A
For a while I thought I stood a chance, when she smiled so sweet
G Bm A D G Bm A
For a while I thought I'd figured her out, that we were meant to be
G Bm A D G Bm A
But she said "no, no, no", she just said "no, no" She said "no, no, no"
[verse 2]
G Bm A D
People put me in my place, I felt the door slam in my face,
G Bm A
spent a long time standing in the rain
G Bm A D
I've been on the losing end, all my dreams seem just pretend,
G Bm A
once or twice thought, I would go insane
[chorus]
G Bm A D Bm D A
For a while I swore I stood a chance. That I was back on my feet
G Bm A D G Bm A
For a while I had figured it out. That it was meant to be
G Bm A D G Bm A
But they said "no, no, no" they just said "no, no". They said "no, no, no"
G Bm A D G Bm A
No, they said "no, no, no" they just said "no, no". They said "no, no, no"
G Bm A G Bm A G Bm A G Bm A
"No, no, no!" "No, no, no!" "No, no, no!" "No, no, no!"
[verse 3]
G Bm A D
Funny how your worst mistake, Can lead you to your lucky break,
G Bm A
It only made me who I am today
[chorus]
G Bm A D G Bm A
All the while always stood a chance, I was asleep on my two feet
G Bm A D G Bm A
Took a while to figure it out, to see the forest for the trees
G Bm A D G Bm A
And now I know, know, know And now I know, and now I know, know, know
G Bm A D G Bm A
And now I know, know, know And now I know, and now I know, know, know

Know, know, know know and now I know know, know, know
G Bm A D G Bm A
Know, know, know know and now I know know, know, know
