in A Major

Verse I:
Picking Up the Pieces of What’s Been Done
Be A Whole Lot Easier If I Was One
Who Had Lots of Peace and Luck When It’d begun
Gotta Let It Be cuz What’s Done is Done What’s Done is Done
Traveled Oh So Far and There’s a Lot to Come
Been a Lot o Scars it Ain’t Been Lots o Fun
Feel the Time Inside it Ain’t Over Yet
I’m Still on the Rise If I Could Only Get Some Demons Outta My Head
Chorus I:
(3) I’ve Been Around This Track So Many Times There’s Nothing That I can Take Back
(4) So Many People Let U Down, That’s What I Get for Living Breathing Being Around

Verse II:
I Can Never Seem to Just Get it Right
Always Hit or Miss and Miss is Winning the Fight
Is it All My Fault or is it My Fate
Doesn’t Matter at All Because it’s Not Too Late, No it’s Never Too Late
This is How You Want it That’s How It Will Be
Dark Can Take the Day So Easily
It’s Beyond Me Why You Play This Charade
Know I’ll Never be Back if It’s the Choice You Made and That’s the Choice You Made!
Chorus II:
(3) I’ve Been Around This Track So Many Times There’s Nothing That I can Take Back
(4) So Many People Let U Down, That’s What I Get for Living Breathing Being Around
(5) I’ll Be Better Tomorrow But Tomorrow Is So Far Away
(6) Good Moods You Can’t Borrow, So We’re Stuck In Here Today
(7) Let Us Take This Hell on Our Chin It’s What They’d Expect
I Guess I Never Thought I Could Win

Bridge (in Eb Lydian):
You’re in A Weird, Weird Place to Be
You Can’t Avoid This (6/4) Tragedy
(4/4) You May or May Not Make It Through
But It Will Be No (6/4) Fault of You
4/4 ♩= 130
Verse III:
Person Next to You Just Found a Pot of Gold
Keep Your Head on Straight Never Sell Your Soul
Have Some Patience You Will Win Back Control
Learning How to Let Go
Learning How to Have Hope
Learning How to Have Faith, Better Make it a Goal, Because You’re Gonna Get Old
So Go and Make It A Goal
Chorus III:
We Been Around This Track Too Many Times There’s Something We Gotta Take Back
Everybody’s Let Us Down, They Stabbed Our Backs Just For Living Breathing Being Around
We’d Be Better Tomorrow if Tomorrow it Weren’t So Far Away
Happiness Can’t be Borrowed; Looks Like We’re Stuck in Right Now Right Here Today
Let’s Take The Hell on Our Chin It’s What I’d Expect
I Guess I Really Thought I Might Win!
