Standard (EADGBE)

Got some bad news this morning

Which in turn made my day

When this someone spoke I listened

All of a sudden has less and less to say

Oooo how could this be

All this time I’ve lived vicariously

Chorus

Who’s gonna save my soul now

Who’s gonna save my soul now

How will my story ever be told now

How will my story be told now

(and so on

)

Made me feel like somebody …huh

Like somebody else

Although he was imitated often

It felt like I was being myself

Is it a shame that someone else’s song

Was totally and completely depended on

Who’s gonna save my soul now

Who’s gonna save my soul now

I wonder if I’ll live grow old now

Getting high cause I feel so low down

And maybe it’s a little selfish

All I have is the memory

Yet I never stopped to wonder

Was it possible you hurtin’ worse than me

Still my hunger turns to greed

Cause what about what I need

And Ooooo

Who’s gonna save my soul now

Whooooo’s gon save my soul now

Oooo I know I’m out of control now hoohooo

Tired enough to lay my own soul down
