i don't wanna fall in love again

something like

am dm em em

c f g f 

i don't wanna fall in love again
cuz i don't wanna die
gotta feeling like another round of this heartbreak will
squeeze the little life left in me dry

and i know that i have done you wrong
confess my bitter failure to the sky
if anyone is listening, though i doubt it, well, one still can hope
that someone, anyone will reply

you are worthy of the promise you've been given
the past is nothing take all your regrets
bundle them with defeat and intransigence
strive forward until you have nothing left

but what's a silly hope in something greater
all around me is just frailty and defect
poverty, war and politics remind me that i don't mean shit
what more of myself could i expect

that i am worthy of the promise i've been given
the past is nothing take all my regrets
bundle them with defeat and intransigence
strive forward until i have nothing left

i want to believe that i can love again
free from the burden of my mistakes
i want to know i'm not my inadequacy
to hear trusted lover softly say

you are worthy of the promise you've been given
the past is nothing take all your regrets
bundle them with defeat and intransigence
strive forward until you have nothing left

lost cause

a new song i'm working on.

f c g am
i'm not trying
to get outta this life alive
when death taps me on the shoulder
to let me know that we've arrived

f c g am
yeah when that welcome passenger
forever on my tail
is the face of my maker
will he tell me that i've failed

f g
cause it's a lost cause
trying to stay on top
and in between the lines

f g
if all i can do
is just to hold you
we'll be all right

f c g am
i know
what i' been put here to do
that conviction took me by the wrist
and led me to you

f c g am
i see an old soul
behind those bright eyes
well if a love this true ain't enough
i'll never get it right

f g
cause it's a lost cause
trying to stay on top
and in between the lines

f g
if all i can do
is just to hold you
we'll be all right
