Standard (EADGBE)

if i could have been true

because i knew it would be understood

if i would have had an attitude

to what's the matter that would be good

if i could have been radical

and not fanatical to the bone

i'm no one's own - alone

if i had a heart i would have a heartache

if i had a soul it was cold

if i had the guts i'd become your murderer

but no one's own - alone

if i was a pioneer

i would rely on her and now

if i could have been ecstatical

and not dramatical somehow

now i'm paying my dues

and staying amused while singing the blues

but no one's own - alone

if i had a heart i would have a heartache

if i had a soul it was cold

if i had the guts i'd become your murderer

but no one's own - alone
