Intro  Bb   A    F    G  (12X)  F  C

G                       C            G
Out on the street I was talkin` to a man
                F                                   G
He said there`s so much of this love of mine that I don`t understand
                                C        G
You shouldn`t worry I said that ain`t no crime
      F             C                   F     C    G             (intro 4X)  F  C
Cause if you get it wrong you`ll get it right next time next time

G                           C      G
You need direction yeah you need a name
            F               C                F       C         G
When you`re standing in the crossroads every highway looks the same
                        C             G
After awhile you get to recognize the signs
   F             C                   F          C          G  (intro 4X)  F C
So if you get it wrong you`ll get it right next time  next time

G                   C         G
Life is a liar yeah life is a cheat
      F               C                    F          C    G    F G
It`ll lead you on and pull the ground from underneath your feet
                             C               G
No use complainin` don`t you worry don`t you whine
      F             C                   F     C    G
Cause if you get it wrong you`ll get it right next time  next time

(intro 4X) F  C  F  C  G  F  C  G  (intro 4X)  F  C

G                          C             G
You gotta` grow you gotta` learn by your mistakes
           F                C            F      C    G
You gotta` die a little everyday just to try to stay awake
                            C                G
When you believe there`s no mountain you can climb
    F             C                   F     C    G
And if you get it wrong you`ll get it right next time  next time

Bb A  F  G             Bb  A  F  G         (Intro 7X)
            Next time              hmmmmm
