They say time heals everything

It turned my whole world around

And I kind of like it

I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
C#
With no regrets and I don't mind sayin'
F#
It's a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
B
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
D#m
And how in the world can the words that I said

Send somebody so over the edge

That they'd write me a letter

Sayin' that I better shut up and sing
B
Or my life will be over
