INTRO:  G , G , Bb6/9, G  - PLAY TWICE 
 
Verse 1: 
G    G                 G               Bb6/9       G  
If I never think about her, I'll never miss her at all 
      G                 G            Bb6/9 
Never wonder what she's doin', Never give her a call 
B     C                                    G    *      
Never see her again, And I'll be free as a bird 
        D                     C                 G    * 
But the trouble with never is never, never works 
 
Verse 2: 
     G               G             Bb6/9         G  
If I never bring her flowers, I'll never see her smile 
     G                 G           Bb6/9             B 
If I never try to kiss her, She'll never drive me wild 
C 
And I'll never feel the need,  
                          G    * 
To say those three little words 
        D                     C                 G 
But the trouble with never is never, never works 
 
Chorus: 
  Bb 
I know how to stay carefree,  
    G  
Let no one get a hold on me 
    Bb 
But I can't keep my hands off her 
        C                   D          
There's something different bout' this girl    (riff 
1) 
 
Verse 3: 
     G                 G         Bb6/9        G   
If I never let me love her, I'll never settle down 
         G         G              Bb6/9             B C 
 
And I'll never put roots, In this god forsaken town 
         C                                 D    G    *  
And I'll never say I do, Or step foot in a church 
        D                     C    
But the trouble with never is never, never works. 
 
Repeat chorus/replace riff 1 with riff 2 
 
Verse 4: 
     G                 G         Bb6/9             G  
If I never think about her, I'll never miss her at all 
      G                 G            Bb6/9 
Never wonder what she's doin', Never give her a call 
      C                                    G    * 
Never see her again, And I'll be free as a bird 
            D                     C            G    *  
Oh, but the trouble with never is never, never works 
          D                     C           G    * 
Yeah, the trouble with never is never, never works 
  G                 G  
At least not with her.
