[Verse 1]
C F C
I'd like to say that I could've stayed
F C G
But she didn't want me to
C F C
I'd like to know if she had to go
F C G
Or if she made a point to
[Chorus 1]
Am Ammaj7
It's so hard to say
Am7 Ammaj7
"Is it always this way?"
Am Ammaj7
Must every heart break
Dm G
Like a wave on the bay
[Verse 2]
C F C
Like to think that we're all a link in
F C G
What makes the world go round
C F C
Lately I wonder if all my pondering's
F C G
Taken up too much ground
[Chorus 2]
Am Ammaj7
I make my own way
Am7 Ammaj7
So at the end of the day
Am Ammaj7
At least I can say
Dm G
That my debts have been paid
[Verse 3]
C F C
25 years, nothing to show for it
F C G
Nothing of any weight
C F C
25 more, will I never learn from it
F C G
Never learn from my mistakes
[Chorus 3]
Am Ammaj7
It's too soon to say
Am7 Ammaj7
"Was I always this way?"
Am Ammaj7
Well at the end of the day
Dm G
My debts have been paid
[Verse 4]
C F C
Now she's gone and I'm all alone
F C G
And she will not be replaced
C F C
Stare at the phone, try to carry on
F C G
But I have made my mistake
[Chorus 4]
Am Ammaj7
At the end of the day
Am7 Ammaj7
At least I can say
Am Ammaj7
I made my own way
Dm G
And my debts have been paid
