   Intro:    Em    Bm    Am    C  D  x 2


 Verse:
G                D
 Somebody told me they saw you with her
C              
 They even called out my name
D
 Thinking I was that girl
G                                 D
 She wears the same kind of make up
                       C     
 And the same colour hair, well she’s a wannabe me
           D
 And she’s even got it down to the clothes I wear

 
 Pre-Chorus:
C                           D
 So you can try to replace me
                          Em
 And start all over again
                                 D
 But what you just don’t understand


 Chorus:
                       G
 You had it right the first time
                       Bm
 But you weren’t satisfied
                    C
 I gave you all of me
                                 D
 So you had no reason to think twice
                       G
 You had it right the first time
              Bm
 But you were so blind
         C               Bm           Am    D
'Cause there’ll never be no better me to find
                       Em        
 You had it right the first time


 Em    Bm    Am    C  D  


 Verse:
G                          D
 She can wear the same perfume
                            C
 And she can hold your hand
                            D
 Yeah she can make you smile but not the way that I can
G                              D                C
 I hope she doesn’t get used to being so attached
                              D
‘Cause she will never be me, no, so it just won’t last


 Pre-Chorus:
C                           D
 So you can try to upgrade me
                              Em
 Yeah you can dream like that
                                 D
 But you might as well face the fact


 Chorus:
                       G
 You had it right the first time
                       Bm
 But you weren’t satisfied
                    C
 I gave you all of me
                                 D
 So you had no reason to think twice
                       G
 You had it right the first time
              Bm
 But you were so blind
         C               Bm           Am    D
'Cause there’ll never be no better me to find
  

 Bridge:
Em
 You can keep searching around
B
 Thinking that we’re all the same
G
 But I’ll always be the best you found
       A
 And that’s one thing that just won’t change
         C               Bm            Am    D
‘Cause there’ll never be no better me, oh no
       C               Bm            Am    D
 No, there’ll never be no better me, oh no


 Chorus:
                       G
 You had it right the first time
                       Bm
 But you weren’t satisfied
                    C
 I gave you all of me
                                 D
 So you had no reason to think twice
                       G
 You had it right the first time
              Bm
 But you were so blind
         C               Bm           Am    D
'Cause there’ll never be no better me to find
         C               Bm           Am    D
'Cause there’ll never be no better me to find, I know I gotta tell you
  C               Bm           Am    D
There’ll never be no better me to find
                     (Em)       
You had it right the first time
