Intro

(G) Some people say I'm (D) one of those guys with the (C) blessings in life over(G)looked
Sometimes I feel like the (D) tatter torn pages of (C) some old paper(D)back book
All the (C) places I've played and the (D)money I've made (Em) still I've got nothing to (C) show
And the (G) only thing that (D) I have left in the (C) whole wide (D) world is (G) you (Dm) (C)

You (G) put your whole life into (D) somethin' you love and you (C) never get that one big (G) break
That'll take you out of the (D) back street bars and (C) put you on center (D) stage
But a (C) million tears and a (D) million beers have (Em) just about washed me (C) up
And the (G) only thing that (D) I have left in the (C) whole wide (D) world is (G) you (G7)

I (C) gave it all I (D) had every (G) night for all these (C) years
(Am) Pourin' out (D) my soul 'til it was (G) gone (G7)
I (C) spread myself so (D) thin and I'm just (G) barely (Am) hang(Bm)in' (C) on
But tonight I'm with you and you can (D) carry me through
Just (Em) lo(D)ve (C) me
'Cuz the (G) only thing that (D) I have left in the (C) whole wide (D) world is (G) you
