Can’t keep a good man down (video)

G ~ + G - C - G (2x)

1. I thought it was forever, I thought it would last,

G

gotta try to make it a page of my past,

C G

you didn't even say goodbye when you slammed that door.

G

Now I'm lyin' here alone in what once was our bed,

G

trying to forget all the cruel words you said,

C G

all the radio was playing what once was our favorite song.

Em G

Oh, enough is enough, I won't take anymore,

C D7

I'm picking myself up off the floor.

G C G - C

‘Cause you can't keep a good man down,

G C G C

you can't keep a good man down, oh no.

G C G C

You can't keep a good man down, baby,

G C G

2. Gonna dress up in my finest clothes that I own,

G

and take it to the streets, I won't be lonely for long,

C G

gonna put on my best moves on every single woman I see.

G

Now you thought you could break me, add me to your list,

G

notch me on your gun, let me tell you this,

C G

I've got news for you, baby, I don't break that easily.

+ CHORUS + G - C - F - C - F - C - G

3. I'll be out there on the scene hangin' with my friends,

G

this world's gonna see me smilin' again,

C G

I'm taking some time to erase you from my memory.

G

Don't write any letters, don't call me on the phone,

G

don't knock on my door, ‘cause to you I'm not at home,

C G

I know there's a woman out there for a man like me.

I'm picking myself up off the floor.
