Tom : Em
Em C
I think i made the worst mistake
G D
A man like me could ever make
Em C
I knew one day my heart would break
G D
But I put it on my sleeve
Em C
I took a chance and walked out on faith
G D
And it led me to this lonely place
Em C
The love I gave was all a waste
G D
And now I have to leave
Em
It`s all a big mistake
I remember in my younger days
The desperate need to change my ways
Well life drags on and complicates
And takes it out of you
And it`s killing me to realize
To believe in this is a waste of time
So take a loss and dry your eyes
There`s nothing you can do
It`s all a big mistake
I can`t change the things I've done
And I didn't want to hurt anyone
It`s sad to know that I've become a dangerous evil man
I know we can`t change the things we say
But angry words are the ones that stay
We try to make them go away
But you`re a fool to think you can
It`s all a big mistake
I think I made the worst mistake
A man like me could ever make
My bags are packed
I sit and wait
Lord, what have I done?
It`s all a big mistake
