^Ab Some say ^Db it's ^Ab destiny
^Db Whether triumph or t ^Ab ragedy
^Db But I believe we cast our nets out ^Ab on the sea
^Eb And nothing we gather
Comes for free
^Db I would have paid down through the ^Ab years
^Db A price beyong rubies beyond ^Ab tears
To keep you ^Eb safe with me
^Db But your suspicion and your ^Ab fear
^Db Your vow to let nobody ^Ab near was your ^Eb trinity
Such a ^Db tra ^Ab gedy ^{Db Ab
Ab} I drew the ^Db best hand ^Ab you'd ever hold
^Db Then cashed my winnings in ^Ab long ago
^Db Settled for silver how ^Ab could I know
^Eb You were waiting with the gold
^Db I could have caused your heart to y ^Ab ield
But I was ^Db only a disturbance in the f ^Ab ield
^Eb Of your dreams
^Db And I will never see you ^Ab cry
^Db You won't be with me when I ^Ab die
A waste of y ^Eb ou and me
A ^Db tra ^Ab gedy ^{Db Ab
Eb} We took the wrong train to
^Ab Kingdom come now
^Eb No more damage
^Ab Can be done baby
^Fm It's just what the ^Db world don't ^Ab need
^Ab It's another stinkin ^Eb traged ^Ab y ^{Db Ab Db Ab Db Ab Db Ab Eb
Db} That's how the story ^Ab goes
^Db Our chapter's coming to a ^Ab close
We are ^Eb history
^Db But I will always think of ^Ab you
^Db Every day until my days are ^Ab through
You made ^Eb me believe
In ^Db tra ^Ab gedy
