           A
I''ve been abused and used and skinned up and bruised
And thrown from a movin'' train 
           D
I''ve been homeless, car less, lost in the wilderness
Out in the pourin'' rain 
             E
I''ve been a business flop spent a year on top
       A             D
Of the most unwanted list
    A E                       A
But I never bit a bullet like this
 
            D
I''ve taken many a fall and I got through ''em all
          A
But I''ve never been hurt this bad
D
You''re making plans with a brand new man
        B                  E
And the pain is driving me mad
             D
I''ve had to bite the bullet when things got tough
        A                     D
But the sea of love has never been this rough
    A
And I''ve never been this far from shore
                                  D
I never bit a bullet like this be fore
  A           E           A
I never bit a bullet like this

           A
I''ve been tied up, fried up, chocked up and dried up
Under a lot of stress 
           D
I''ve been burned down, turned down, been run out of town
Up to my ears in a mess 
        E
I had a year go by with tears in my eyes
  A                       D
I didn''t even want to ex ist
    A E                       A
But I never bit a bullet like this
 
            D
I''ve taken many a fall and I got through ''em all
