If I Can't Win
[Verse 1]
(A7)
D
See the shadows over there
A
When the dim lamplight hits your chair
E
These are thoughts I never say
D A
I make them hide and go away
D
Overlooking what I see
A
In the past got the best of me
E
Orange curtains and pale blue walls
D A
If I can’t win I’m a lose it all
D Bm E
[Verse 2]
D
I talk to my cigarettes
A
The most they listen is tenderness
E
But I’ll have another one
D A
It’s a new pack so they can’t run
D
Sometimes people walk the way
A
When they overhear what I say
E
It’s just the same old call
D A
If I can’t win I’m going to lose it all
D Bm E
[Verse 3]
D
Take a walk around this room
A
And the gifts that you took too soon
E
Too many memories
D A
Drags out the worst in me
D
Saw a picture book on the self
A
Was alone so I helped myself
E
Stand it up and watch it fall
D A
If I can’t win I’m going to lose it all
E
Stand it up and watch it fall
D A
If I can’t win I’m going to lose it all
