I kept the right ones out and let the wrong ones in a G 
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins C F

Tryin' to walk through the pain D/F# F 
When I lost my grip and I hit the floor a G

I was so sick and tired of livin' a lie f/G# C/G 
I was wishin' that I would die D/F# F

That one last shot's a permanent vacation a D 
And how high can you fly with broken wings? F C 
Life's a journey not a destination a D 
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings F G 

 
You have to learn to crawl before you learn to walk a G 
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk C F 
I was out on the street, just tryin' to survive f/G# C/G 
Scratchin' to stay alive D/F# F 

 
It's amazing, with the blink of an eye you finally see the light C e F e G 
It's amazing when the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright C e F e G 
It's amazing and I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight a e D G C
