D   Em  A   D   G D
Em A Em A   D

[Chorus]
D                                    Em
Tried to do the right thing for my baby
G      A                             D
For my baby tried to do the right thing
                                   Em
Tried to do the right thing for my baby
                  A                         D
Don’t mean maybe, tried to do the right thing

[Verse 1]
D                           Em
I’m facing all this resistance
                  A                        D
'Cause the wisdom of my decision was flawed
                                            Em
I was promised it would be just our business
            A                               D
But I found out so many people were involved

[Bridge]
G                              D
Can’t go forward, can’t go back
Em                       D  Em
Weighing up the situation
G                               F#m
Did you ever feel like you were caught up in
B7           E7                  A
Some kind of suspended animation?

[Verse 2]
        D               Em
Now I’m certainly no hero
                     A
But all the goodwill I gave them
               D
Now just means zero
                                     Em
Tried to do thе right thing for my baby
G                    A
But it all went wrong
                 D
And I just got conned

[Guitar Solo]
D   Em  A  D    Em   A  D

[Bridge]
G                              F#m
Can’t go forward, can’t go back
                Em
Just weighing up
                A        D
Wеighing up the situation
G
Feel like I’ve been caught up
        F#m     E7                A
In some kind of suspended animation

[Verse 3]
    D                    Em
Now I’m certainly no hero
                       A
But all the goodwill I gave them
             D
Turned into zero
                                     Em
Tried to do the right thing for my baby
A
But everything went wrong
               D
And I just got conned

[Interlude]
D   Em  A  D    Em  A  D

[Chorus]
D                               Em
Tried to do the right thing for my baby
           A                            D
Don’t mean maybe, tried to do the right thing
                                     Em
Tried to do the right thing for my baby
           A
But it all gone wrong
               D
And I just got conned
                Em                   A
Tried to do the right thing for my baby
                  D
But it all went wrong
                          A
Do the right thing for my baby
A
And I just got conned
            D
I just got conned
