C-F-G-C
I've (C)lost all the time that I (F)have in this world
I (C)spent it unwisely. Unwisely I (G)see
And I (C)can't get it back and I (F)can't move forward
I'm (C)broken and I'm empty, it's (G)over for (C)me
If (F)I could undo all the (C)wrongs that I've caused
(F)Fall to my knees pray for swiftness and (G)just
For (C)I'm just a fool, a fool (F)driven to dust
And the (C)world ain't gonna (G)change for (C)me
C-C-F-F C-C-C-G C-C-F-F C-C-G-C
So (F)give me one more chance to prove these (C)problems and frustrations
Aren't just (F)manifest in memories we're destined to re(G)peat
A (C)second chance to prove I (F)know right from wrong
I (C)swear I'll do things different but can't (G)promise to be (C)strong
Chorus
So (F)come on all you losers, you (C)bastards and cheats
(F)Vagrants and barflies (G)down on the streets
Follow this (C)path to salvation vindi(F)cation awaits
We're (C)marching on East (F)Broadway (G)streets to(C)night
C-F-G-C
If you can (C)look into this old face and (F)try to see the young man
I (C)swear I once was pretty, not the monster you now (G)see
But I (C)squandered all my chances, lost my (F)faith and took for granted
This (C)life and precious one chance the (G)whirlwind I'll (C)reap
If (F)I could undo all the (C)wrongs that I've caused
(F)Fall to my knees pray for swiftness and (G)just
For (C)I'm just a fool, a fool (F)driven to dust
And the (C)world ain't gonna (G)change for (C)me
I've (C)lost all the time that I (F)have in this world
I (C)spent it unwisely. Unwisely I (G)see
And I (C)can't get it back and I (F)can't move forward
I'm (C)broken and I'm empty, it's (G)over for (C)me
If (F)I could undo all the (C)wrongs that I've caused
(F)Fall to my knees pray for swiftness and (G)just
For (C)I'm just a fool, a fool (F)driven to dust
And the (C)world ain't gonna (G)change for (C)me
C-C-F-F C-C-C-G C-C-F-F C-C-G-C
So (F)give me one more chance to prove these (C)problems and frustrations
Aren't just (F)manifest in memories we're destined to re(G)peat
