Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad
by Meatloaf (written by Jim Steinman)
Verse
[G]Baby we can talk all [D]night
[C]But that ain't gettin us [G]nowhere
[G]2I told you [D]2everything I [Em]possibly can
[C]There's nothing left in[D]side of here
Verse…[G-D-C-G] [G2-D2-Em-C-D]
And maybe you can cry all night
But that'll never change the way I feel
The snow is really piling up outside
I wish you wouldn't make me leave here
Bridge
[C]2I poured it [D]2on and I [G]poured it out
[C]2I tried to [D]2show you just how [G]much I care
[C]2I'm tired of[D]2words, & I'm[G]2too hoarse to[Em]2shout
[F]8But you've been cold to me so long
I'm crying [C]icicles instead of [D]tears,
And [C]2all I can [D]2do, is [C]2keep on telling [D]2you
Chorus
[G]I want you, I [Em]need you
There[C]ain't no[D]way I'm[Bm]ever gonna[Em]love you
Now [C]1don't [Em]1be [Am]sad
Cause [C]2two out of [D]2three ain't [G]bad
Bridge
[C] 2You'll never find your [D]2 gold on a [G] sandy beach
[C]2 You'll never drill for [D]2 oil on a [G] city street
[C]2 I know you're looking for a [D]2 ruby in a
[G]2 Mountain of [Em]2rocks
[F]6 But there ain't no Coup de Ville,
Hiding at the [C]2 bottom of a [D] CrackerJack box
Bridge
[Bm]I can not lie
[Bm]I cannot tell you that I'm [C] something I'm not
[C]No matter how I try, I'll [Bm]never be able
[Bm]To give you something
[C]Something that I just haven't [D]got
Verse…
[G]There's only one girl that I will ever love
And that was [C]so many years ago[G]
[G]And though I know I'll never get her [Em]out of my heart
She never [C]loved me back[D]
Verse…
[G]I remember how she left me on a stormy night
She [C]kissed me and got out of our [G]bed
And though I pleaded and I begged her not to
[Em]Walk out that door
[C]She packed her bags and turned [D]right away
And [C]all I can [D]do, is [C]keep on telling [D]you
Chorus
[G]I want you, I [Em]need you
There[C]ain't no[D]way I'm[Bm]ever gonna[Em]love you
Now [C]1don't [Em]1be [Am]sad

[C]She kept on [D]telling me
[C]She kept on [D]telling me
