G Bm
Oh I must have left some stones unturned
C D G
Or could be quite a few
G Bm C D
There's a lot I've overlooked and never knew
G Bm
There's some things you learn while getting burned
C D G
Don't feel good at the time
G Bm Am C
Playing by your set of rules
G Bm Am7 D
Pretending that you'll never lose
G Bm Am7
But I know better now
G Bm Am7
I know better now
G Bm C D G Am
It just took a while to figure out
G Bm
There's so much to take for granted
C D G
When life is going well
Bm C D
And when the tides will turn no one can tell
G Bm
Some wise men knew that played the blues
C D G
That no one has hardly heard
G Bm Am C
The high cost of fooling yourself
G Bm Am7 D
Not mentioning everyone else
G Bm Am7
But I know better now
G Bm Am7
I know better now
G Bm C D G
It just took a while to figure out
F G F D
Some mysteries hang on the breeze
SOLO
G Bm
And we'll all go to some big hotel
C D G
Where weary hearts can rest
Bm Am C G Bm Am7 D
Getting and giving more of the faith and the hope and the love
G Bm Am7
But I know better now
G Bm Am7
I know better now
G Bm C D G
It just took a while to figure out
