Verse
Dm Am G C
All the kings and queens in the Bible
Dm Am G
They could not turn back time
Dm Am G C
So what chance have I of a miracle
Dm Am G
In this life of mine?
[Refrão]G F
I only want one day
G C
To unsay the things I said
Am
Undo the thing I did

Twenty four little hours
G C
Oh, God, please wipe them all away
Am F
And I promise I will change
G C
If I could start today again

When the red mist falls around my eyes

I know not what I do

Please give me back today
G C
And I won't say the things I said

Or do that thing I did

Every minute, every hour
G C
The replay's just the same
Am F
And I can't stand the shame
G C
Oh, let me start today again

One lousy day, that's all

Of every day that's been before

Since time began

But for a second I'll pretend

That I can start today again
