Intro:  C


Verse:
                           G
All my lifetime I've done wrong 
      Am       F  C
Never thinking I belonged 
                          G   
And my problems stay with me
         Am       F        C 
Cause my thoughts lie with she 
                                   G
She was my girlfriend though I was mean 
       Am          F       C
Always there in my hour of need 
                             G
I took for granted her gentleness 
             Am         F          C
And have to live without her sweet caress 

Chorus:

         Am    F    C
And as I light me a cigarette 
            G       F     C
My heart is falling in my breast 
         Am     F       C C/B Am
And as I lie me down to rest
          F       G   C
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

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
