Lyrics
Second Chances (CAPO 1ST FRET) D WALTZ by Don Haddock ©
D
She wasn't there smiling
G
When I walked through the door
D
She didn't have supper waiting
G
Like all those nights before
D
There were no arms to hold me tight
G
No kisses to say it's all right
A G
She was deaf to my worn out lies
G D
My baby's leaving tonight....
[Chorus]
G D
I've run out of second chances
G D
I've used all my reasons why
G D
The bars, the girls, and bright city lights
A-------G D
Have cost me the love of my life.
[INSTRUMENTAL] DDGGDDGGDDGGAAGGDD
There are no words of forgiveness
And no tears in her eyes
She's made up her mind for certain
So I'll sleep alone tonight.
[Chorus]
I've run out of second chances
I've used all my reasons why
The bars, the girls, and bright city lights
Have cost me the love of my life.
The bars, the girls, and bright city lights
Have cost me the love of my life. [END]
