[Verse 1]
C G
When I made up my mind to come home
C
I didn’t even close the door
C G
There was nothing in that place where I lived
C
That I needed anymore
F
I told the old man down the hall “what’s mine is yours
C
Take what you need”
C
I believe the only thing worth saving
G
From this life I’ve been living
C
Is me
[Verse 2]
C G
There’s an old worn out couch where I tossed and turned
C
And didn’t get much sleep
C G
And there’s a broken coffee pot and some dirty dishes
C
Laying in the sink
F
And there’s a double bed with all the empty space
C
That a lonely man could need
C
But I believe the only thing worth saving
G
From this life I’ve been living
C
Is me
[Bridge]
F
I made a mess of everything when I walked out on you
C
And that’s a fact
G
Now I’m standing here the way I left
C
With just my clothes on my back
F
I know I’ve got no right to be here
C
But I am praying you’ll agree
C
That the only thing worth saving
G
From this life I’ve been living
C
Is me
[Break]
C G C
C G C
[Bridge]
F
I made a mess of everything when I walked out on you
C
And that’s a fact
G
Now I’m standing here the way I left
C
With just my clothes on my back
F
I know I’ve got no right to be here
C
But I am praying you’ll agree
C
That the only thing worth saving
G
From this life I’ve been living
C
Is me
