VERSE:

If I never said goodbye

        G
To all that I've known

         C         G
I would never be alone

      E              Am
But still I will not cry, no

         G
I'm not finished yet,

               C                        G
So, you gotta wipe the smirk from your eye

           E              Am
Because if I were to hang my head

              G
I'd miss all-all the rainbows

          E
And I'd drown in raindrops instead
CHORUS:

But still I'm gonna win, yeah

I'm not finished yet, world

    C              G
So wipe the smirk from your chin
