_ _ _ _ _ When I was [C] a younger [G] man looking for a pot of [C] gold
_ [G] _
Everywhere [C] I turned [G] the [D] doors were closed
_ _ Took _ [G] _
every ounce [C] of faith I [G] had to keep on keeping [C] on
_ _ [G] Still I felt [C] like I [G] was [D] only losing
_ _ _ _ [C] I refused [G] then like I do now
Let anybody tie [C] me down
[G] I lost a few good friends along [D] the way _
I _ _ [C] was raised up poor [G] and I wanted more
_ Maybe I'm a little [C] too proud
_ [G] Looking back I see a kid [D] who's just afraid
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
Hungry, _ guessing [D] lowly before [G] his time _ _ _

_ _ _ _ Through the years [C] I've known my [G] share of broken [C] hearted fools
_ [G] To those who [C] couldn't choose a [G] [D] path worth taking
There's _ _ [G] nothing in [C] the world so [G] sad as talking to [C] a man
_ _ [G] Never knew [C] his life [G] was his [D] for me
_ And [C] it ain't about time that [G] you realize
It's not worth keeping [C] score
_ [G] You win some, you lose [D] some, you let it _ go
_ _ _ [C] What's the use [G] of sticking on every failure, all of [C] the stone
[G] Till you find you've spent your whole life [D] building _ walls
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _
Lonely, _ [G] guessing [D] lowly before [G] your time _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ [G] _ _

[C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [C]
It took _ _ _ so [Em]
long to see
_ _ That _
[C] _ _ truth _ was [Em] all _ around _ [D] me _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] Now the wren [C] has gone to [G] roost, the sky's turning [C] gold
[G] And like the sky [C] my [G] soul is [D] also _ turning
_ _ _ _ [G] _ Turning [C] from the past at [G] last and all I've left [C] behind
_ [G] How could it be [C] that [G] I am [D] finally learning
_ _ _ _ [C] _ Learning [G] I'm _ deserving of love and a [C] peaceful heart
_ [G] Won't tear myself apart no more [D] for trying _
_ _ _ [C] Tired of lying to [G] _ myself, trying to buy what [C] can't be bought
[G] It's not living that you're doing if it feels like [D] dying _
It's _ [C] only _ crying, _ _ _ [D] going low [G] before your time
_ _ _ [C]
Crying, _ _ [D] going low [C] before [G] your time
_ _ Thank
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [N] _ _ you very much
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
