Intro:

Bm  Bm


Verse 1:

Bm                                 D
   I said I’m gonna spend my time alone
                     G                   D           F#
Cause it ain’t worth trying to find that lover’s soul
Bm                                   D
   I said it’s better searching in myself
                        G
Cause I couldn’t give away my love,
                      Gm
Or spend my time with anybody else
            A                     A7
But oh, sometimes I believe I can make the change,
F#                  F#7
   Oh Lord, are you feeling the same way

Verse 2:

Bm                                   D
   I said I better change my sinking thoughts
                    G                  D                   F#
Before they pull me under to drown out everything I’ve got
Bm                              D
   And yet I find comfort in despair
                          G
Cause I’ve wallowed in it far too long, when things go wrong
   Gm
It feels good not to care
            A                     A7
And oh, sometimes I believe I can make the change
F#                   F#7
   Good God, are you feeling the same way


Chorus:

D                           A                      Bm
   Cause I would do it for her, if she’d do it for me
            G        A       D
If this is where we ought to be
             A               Bm
I am only a man, my sins of pride
               G        F#       Bm
are swallowed down here by your side


Verse 3:

                                      D
Instead I’m gonna praise my stubborn heart
                 G                    D                 F#
But I feel like dying, and I know I’m only at the start
Bm                             D
   And as the days go passing by
                   G
Well that window begins to close, and so it shows
      Gm
When months turn into years, well I try
    A                   A7
And oh, I believe I can make the change
F#                   F#7
   Good God, are you feeling the same way


Final Chorus:

D                     A                       Bm
   I would do it for her, if she’d do it for me
            G       A        D
If this is where we ought to be
             A               Bm
I am only a man, my sins of pride
               G        F#       D
are swallowed down here by your side
              A               Bm
If all should fail, so often does
            G          A        D
Of lack of passion and lack of trust
                      A                      Bm
But I would do it for her if she’d do it for me
            G       F#       Bm
If this is where we ought to be.
