still [Fm] ain't been made
[D] And so [Eb] I wait to [G] see [Eb] how it lays
[Ebm] In this [Eb] bed of [Abm] debts and promises [B] I made
So [F] who pays [Bb] if I don't [B] pay?
[Eb] I'm a man [Ab] in pain, [Db] looking back [Ab] on the past
[Db] Lord may the [Ab]
good, Lord may the [E] good outweigh the [Fm] bad
