You Take Me For Granted

by Merle Haggard        [3/4 time}

G

My legs and my feet 

                                    C

Have walked 'till they can't hardly move 

               G

From trying to please you

And my back is sore 

                      C

From bending over backwards 

   A7                         D7

To just lay the world at your door

G

I've tried so hard to keep a smile 

                    C

On a sad face while deep down 

                 G

It's breaking my heart 

       C                      G         C

And as sure as the sunshine's I'll be a life time 

     G         D7           G

Not knowing if I've done my part

       D7              G

'Cause You Take Me For Granted 

D7                   G

And it's breaking my heart 

               D7       G  C        F

As sure as the sunshine's  I'll be a lifetime 

    G          D7           G

Not knowing if I've done my part
