Nothing I can do about it now    (video)

 

    G ~

 

                    G

1. I've got a long list of real good reasons,

                                       D

    for all the things I've done,

 

    I've got a picture in the back of my mind,

                        D7                         G

    of what I've lost and what I've won.

                 G

    I've survived every situation,

                                                                 D

    knowing when to freeze and when to run,

                 D                 D7        - D                          D7

    and regret is just a memory,       written on my brow,

                         D                 D7               G

    and there's nothing I can do about it now!

 

                     G

2. I've got a wild and a restless spirit,

                                                           D

    I've held my price through every deal,

 

    I've seen the fire of a woman scorned, 

                    D7                     G

    turn her heart of gold to steel.

                        G

    I've got the song of the voice inside me, 

                                               D

    set to the rhythm of the wheel.

                          D                    D7                     D                       D7

    and I been dreamin' like a child, since the cradle broke the bough,

                         D                D7               G

    and there's nothin' I can do about it now!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

C

    Runnin' through the changes, goin' through the stages,

                                                  G

comin' round the corners in my life,

A7                                 - F

    leavin' doubt to fate,       stayin' out too late,

G                                                       D - D7

    waitin' for the moon to say good ni.......ght.

 

                        G

3. And I could cry for the time I've wasted,

                                                      D

    but that's a waste of time and tears,

                 D                         D7                      D                          D7

    and I know just what I'd change, if I went back in time somehow,

                        D                 D7               G

    but there's nothing I can do about it now !

 

+  instrumental = verse 3

 

+  CHORUS            +  repeat verse 3

 

                D

+  I'm forgiving everything that forgiveness will allow,

                                           D7               G

    and there's nothin' I can do about it now !     + G ~
