Two Out Of Three Aint Bad

A C#m D E

A                    C#m
Baby we can talk all night
D                         A
But that ain't getting us nowhere
              C#m          F#m
I've told you everything I possibly can
D                     E
There' nothing left inside of here

    A                     C#m
And maybe you can cry all night
    D                        A
But that'll never change the way that I feel
            C#m           F#m
The snow is really piling up outside
  D                         E
I wish you wouldn't make me leave here

D           E        A
I poured it on and I poured it out
D          E                 A
I tried to show you just how much I care
D            E                 A         F#m
I'm tired of words and I'm too hoarse to shout
G
But you've been cold to me so long
           D                  E
I'm crying icicles instead of tears

    D         E     D       E
And all I can do is keep on telling you
  A
I want you (I want you)
  F#m
I need you (I need you)
          D        E       C#m        F#m
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
    Bm
Now don't be sad (don't be sad)
      D          Dm          F#m  E
cause two out of three ain't bad
    Bm
Now don't be sad
      D          Dm          A   E  A
cause two out of three ain't bad

       D               E         A
You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach
       D               E        A
You'll never drill for oil on a city street
              D             E         A           F#m
I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks
          G                                                 E
But there ain't no Coupe de Ville hiding at the bottom of a Crackerjack box

C#m
I can't lie (I can't lie)
                          D
I can't tell you that I'm something I'm not

No matter how I try
     C#m
I'll never be able

To give you something
D                             E
Something that I just haven't got (woh-oh)

             A                         C#m
Well there's only one girl that I will ever love
             D       E7     A
And that was so many years ago
                       C#m           F#m
And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart
          D
She never loved me back
E
Ooh I know
       A
Well I remember how she left me on a stormy night
        D                 E          A
Oh, She kissed me and got out of our bed
             A             C#m               F#m
And though I pleaded and I begged her not to walk out that door
    D                                 E
She packed her bags and turned right away

        D       E
And she kept on telling me
    D       E
She kept on telling me
    D       E
She kept on telling me
  A
I want you (I want you)
  F#m
I need you (I need you)
          D        E       C#m        F#m
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
    Bm
Now don't be sad (don't be sad)
      D          Dm          A
cause two out of three ain't bad

  A
I want you (I want you)
     F#m
Oh I need you (I need you)
          D        E       C#m        F#m
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
    Bm
Now don't be sad (don't be sad)
      D          Dm          F#m   E

Now don't be sad
      D                Dm    A

A                    C#m
Baby we can talk all night
D              E          A
But that ain't getting us nowhere
