I Esent my résumé to God In EMLA and 12 point font My aEwards are all in order and my references are pretty stronEg My C#mbullet points concise and now my Bgrammar's fixed and typos found I'm Ahopin' if she sees it I have F#mmade my English teacher proud E
And I've Edone my share of charity But Eleft out the profanities I Eknow that he's a busy guy and maybe won't remember these E The C#momnipotent editor knows Ball the tricks by now I'm sure But Afirst impressions stick, so I am F#mleading with my best foot first E
So Enow I wait for the response A Ecall from my potential boss Did EI apply 'cause I am lost? Is N.C.it too late to call it off?
[Chorus]
I C#mdidn't know I had an Banswer for this Aquestion 'till I asked But now that C#mI am set in Bmotion all I Awant's a second F#mchance Take it back E
[Verse 2]
I'm Eflinching as I check the mail And Eflip through bills and grocery sales I Ethrow out all the clutter, understand that it can’t help me now E But C#mthere it is, I’ve finally heard ‘Cause Bin my hands: the holy word The Aenvelope is gold and it’s addF#mressed to: "whom it may concern” E
And EI’m too scared To Elook inside With Eshaking hands And Efading eyes But C#mnothing now can change at all the Bcontents of this envelope It's Abest I get this over with, 'cause F#mignorance won't save myE soul
And I Eread the words one at a time But Ecan't get past the leading line My Eeyes refocus, open wide... “Your N.C.application's been denied”
[Chorus]
C#mDidn't know I had an Banswer for this Aquestion 'till I asked But now that C#mI may never Bhave it all I Awant's a second F#mchance Take it back C#m A E B
[Bridge]
C#m “Your application's been deniAed We can’t accept you at this tEime We’ll keep your paperwork on fBile We’ll reach back out when it’s your tC#mime"
"We know that life can seem so crAuel That’s why today is just too soEon You still have so much left to dN.C.o The world’s not ready to lose yoC#mu"
"So many lives to still impaAct Some still have yet to cross your paEth We know that it’s a lot to aBsk Please learn your worth, and take it baC#mck Take it bEack"
[Outro]
I take it baEck...
