I Would

[F]I'm disappointed in myself again you know
It's always [Am]something that I just had to let go
But you were the [Bb]one thing I wanted to do right [F]in this world [C]
It's just the [F]TV, cigarettes, and a bed
And some [Am]cheap soft drugs to keep me in my head
And [Bb]stop me from begging you to overlook my [F]sins   [C]

And if I could [D]ch[D]ange [E#]this [Bb]day[Bb],   [C]I w[F]ou[F]ld   [Bb]       [F]
               [D] [D]      E
And if I could make you stay, I would

I always [F]wanted to have this wild, exciting life
I swore I'd [Am]never, ever stop to check the price
But you were the [Bb]one thing
I thought I could stay [F]straight for [C]
And it's not a [F]bad thing to be loose and hard and free
So I u[Am]nderstand why you had to leave
But I'd do [Bb]anything to find the better part of me for [F]you   [C]

And if I could [D]ch[D]ange [E#]my wa[Bb]ys,[Bb] I w[C]oul[F]d [F]      [Bb]          [F]
And if I could [D]ma[D]ke you [E#]stay,[Bb] I [Bb]woul[C]d  [F]    [F]         [Bb]             [F]

I would, I would
If I could change my ways, I would
And if I could make you stay, I would
I would
And I could change my ways, I would
And if I could make you stay, I would (2x)
I would

I'm disappointed in myself again
You know
It's always something that I just had to let go
But you were the one thing
I wanted to do right
In this world
