He Never Got Enough Love

Written by Betty Elders/Lucinda Williams

	  		G                             C          
His mama ran off when he was just a kid 
      D                         G    
So he never really knew her at all 
                              C          
Just a picture of a girl in a sad blue dress 
D                             G    
Hanging beside a cross on the wall 
G                             C  
His daddy used to drive those eighteen wheelers 
       D                               G 
Now he drives the bottle deep into the night 
G                                  C 
He was always saying   son, you're just no good 
       D                 G  
You'll never do anything right 
         G                  Am7           
He never got enough love in all his life 
          C                         D               G Am7 C D    
He wasn't brought up right he never got enough love 
G                                    C 
The screams and the bruises  and the broken bottles 
D                         G 
These were things he understood 
G                       C 
From busted chairs to a broken heart 
   D                      G 
He got away as soon as he could 
G                                    C  
When he was just eighteen he got his very own gun 
D                                  G                         
Shot a kid near a liquor store one night 
G                             C 
He was all mixed up  he never understood why 
       D                                G 
He was only lookin' to prove his daddy right 
         G                  Am7           
He never got enough love in all his life 
          C                         D                   
He wasn't brought up right he never got enough love 
         G                  Am7           
He never got enough love in all his life 
          C                         D                   
He wasn't brought up right he never got enough love 
 
G Am7 C D G Am7 C D G Am7 C D G Am7 C D G
