[Em] [C] [G]
[Em] [C] [G] I thought [Em] I saw the devil [C] this [G] morning
[Em] Looking [C] in [G] the mirror, drop of rum on [Em] my tongue
[C] With [G] a warning to [Em] [C] help me see [G] myself clearer
I [Am] never meant to start [G] a fire
I [Em] never meant to make [C] you bleed
[Em] I'll be a better man today
I'll [C] be good, I'll [G] be good
And [Em] I'll love [C] the world like [G] I should
Yeah, [Em] I'll [C] be good, I'll [G] be good
For all of [Am] the times
That [G] I [Em] never could
[C] My [G] [Em] [C]
[G] past has [Em] tasted bitter
[C]
[G] For years now
So [Em] [C] I wield an [G] iron fist
Grace is [Em] just [C] weakness
[G] Oh, so I've been told
I've [Em] been cold, I've [C] been [G] merciless
But [Am] the blood on my hands
[Em] Scares me to death
Maybe I'm [C] waking up [Em] today
[C] I'll be good, [Em] I'll be [G] good
[Em] And I'll love [C] the world [G] like I should
[Em] [C] I'll be good, [G] I'll be good
[Em] I'll [C] be good, [G] I'll be good
For all [Am] of the life that I shut out
[G] For all [C] of the innocent things that I doubt
[D] For all [Am] of the bruises I've caused
And for tears
[G] For all [C] of the things that I've done
All [D] these [Am] years
[G] [C]
[D] Yeah, for all [Am] of the sparks that I stomped [G] out
For all [C] of the perfect things that I doubt
[Em] I'll be good, I'll be [G] good
And [Em] I'll love the [G] world like I should
[Em] Yeah, [C] I'll be good, [G] I'll be good
For all [Em] of the [C] times
[G] I never could
Oh, [E] [Em]
[G] [Em] oh,
[G] [Em] oh
[G] For all [Em] of the times
[G] I never could
[Em] [G] [Em]
