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
