G               D               Em              C 
I didn't cheat,   I didn't lie,  So her leavin took me by surprise 
G                               D 
Just a note on the table sayin were through. 
G                       D 
At first I went crazy so it took me some time 
        Em              C 
But I finally read between the lines  
G               D               G 
Its not what I did, Its what I didn't do. 
 
G                       Bm      C 
I didn't tell her  each day I loved her 
G                               D 
I took it for granted some how she knew 
G                               B       C 
I didn't hold her  when she needed a shoulder 
G               D               G 
Its not what I did,  Its what I didn't do 
 
G               D                       Em                      C 
Its easy to see why her loved died, she was planning her nights by the 
TV guide. 
G                               D 
She needed me  with her more than I knew 
G                       D                       Em              C 
I was to busy workin,  getting ahead,  when I should have been home 
loving her instead 
G               D               G 
Its not what I did,  its what I didn't do 
 
G                       Bm      C 
I didn't tell her  each day I loved her 
G                               D 
I took it for granted some how she knew 
G                               B       C

G               D               G

G               D               G 
Its not what I did,  Its what I didn't do
