Buddy Miller I'm Not Gettin' Any Better written by Steve Earle
At Goodbye
C F
Seems like I've been here before
G C
Just outside some closing door
F G
Standing here just searching for a line
C F
You'd think by now I'd have it down
G C
I know I should be wiser now
F G
Cause no one's gonna bail me out this time cause
F G C
I'm not gettin any better at goodbyes
F C
I'm not any better now than when I first began
D7 G
It hurts every bit as much as it did way back then
C F
I suppose I cry a lot
G Am F G C
The only thing for sure is I'm not gettin' any better at goodbyes
SOLO
C F
Friends will come and friends will go
G C
But lovers memories die so slow
C F G
And they won't always let you know it's time oh
C F
But even this shall pass I guess and
G C
You'll be just like all the rest
C F G
I'll start dusting off all my best lines cause
F G C
I'm not gettin' any better at goodbyes
F C
I'm not any better now than when I first began
D7 G
It hurts every bit as much as it did way back then
C F
I suppose I cry a lot
G Am F G C
The only thing for sure is I'm not gettin any better at goodbyes
F G C
I'm not gettin any better at goodbyes
