Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse

 All my lifetime I've done wrong

 Never thinking I belonged

 And my problems stay with me

 Cause my thoughts lie with she

 She was my girlfriend though I was mean

 Always there in my hour of need

 I took for granted her gentleness

 And have to live without her sweet caress

Chorus

 And as I light me a cigarette

 My heart is falling in my breast

 And as I lie me down to rest

 There's a mountain of regret

Verse

I turn my back on her true love

All my friends and the lord above

And my drinking dragged me down

To the bars in Cabbage town

Chorus

And as I light me a cigarette

My heart is falling in my breast

And as I lie me down to rest

There's a mountain of regret

Solo

Verse and chorus chords together

Verse

And as I sit here feeling low

Wondering why she had to go

I know I see through my disgrace

The perfect beauty of her face

Chorus

And as I light me a cigarette

My heart is falling in my breast

And as I lie me down to rest

There's a mountain of regret
