Lyrics

I give up
And I give in
Guess I don't have what it takes
To play to win

I admit
And I confess
That the time behind me
Was probably my best

(Chorus)
But if trouble jumps off
Then I'll jump in
I'll be there with you
Through thick and through thin
If trouble jumps off
Then I'll jump in
'Cause we've all committed a little unoriginal sin


I forgive
And I forget
But I haven't noticed
Any benefit yet

I look back
And look ahead
Wrapped up in regret
That I can't seem to shed

Chorus

I like the relaxed vibe of the song. Love the added banjo and the singer's voice. If I'm hearing the chorus correctly, I love the phrase "unoriginal sin".
