F G Am
Well I prayed Fthat the sun was a hope and the Frain was an angel
G Am F
I came out oFf the treetop and into the cradle
G Am
FAnd I broke down like a bFabe with the hungriest belly
You make Git all wortAmh my whiFle F
F G Am F
Well I lay under the cFovers for a hundred days
G Am F
And I closed botFh my eyes til the relatives came
G Am F
And I spun rouFnd in a circle til I came undone
G Am F F
AmYou maFke iGt all worth my while
So senFd me to the grave with the age old question G
AmHow'd I get into this beautiful mess?F
It was neverF my intention and never my style G
AmEverything about you is worth my whileF F
G Am F
I laughed so nobFody ever had to catch me crying
G Am F
And I cried so noboFdy ever had to catch me lying
G Am F
And I failed a thousandF times but it keeps me trying
G Am F F
AmYouF mGake it all worth my while
So senFd me to the grave with the age old question G
AmHow'd I get into this beautiful mess?F
It was neverF my intention and never my style G
AmEverything about you is worth my whileF F
So senFd me to the grave with the age old question G
AmHow'd I get into this beautiful mess?F
It was neverF my intention and never my style G
AmEverything about you is worth my whileF F
So senFd me to the grave with the age old question G
AmHow'd I get into this beautiful mess?F
It was neverF my intention and never my style G
AmSome things happen and I don't know why F
And it all coFmes down at the end of the day G
Its haAmrd to handle and its hard to take F
Its a migFhty big world, mighty big game G
AmI've been broken and I've been ashamed F
I've been caught iFn the world, out in the blue, G
Am F F
CrGasAmhed to the floor but I still have you
FI still have you F G Am
FI still have you F G Am
FI still have you F G Am
FI still have you F G Am
(I think it threw out the spacing a little, but if you stick to the patterns (G-D-Em-C
and G-Em-C-D) and switch every two counts, you'll be sweet. You know the song anyway!
Otherwise, listen to the track for the timing. Sorry about that!
