G C G D G

 G                                    D
 It's taken me some time to read, the writing on the wall
                                      C                 G
 But I have finally figured out, just what's been going on
                                                              C
 And I need to tell you what I've learned, before you turn to go
                           G            D                G
 There's things about that other man, I think you should know.

[Chorus]
     C                                     G
 The Man That Came Between Us, was lookin? out for number one
           C                                G                   D
 He didn't care how bad he hurt you, by the selfish things he'd done
     G                              C
 But lookin? in the mirror today, I finally came to see
     G                D           C   G D G
 The Man That Came Between Us Was Me.

 G                                   D
 I know I'm sorry don't make up, for half the tears you've cried
                                   C                   G
 And I can't promise miracles, but I swear to God I'll try
                                                              C
 Cause if you'll give me half a chance, I'll treat you like I should
                         G
 Honey your lovin' man's come home again
          D                   G
 And that stranger's gone for good.

[Chorus]
     C                                     G
 The Man That Came Between Us, was lookin? out for number one
           C                                G                   D
 He didn't care how bad he hurt you, by the selfish things he'd done
     G                              C
 But lookin? in the mirror today, I finally came to see
     G                D           G
 The Man That Came Between Us Was Me.

 C             G                D           C   G D G
 Oh honey, The Man That Came Between Us Was Me.
