  I was a pretty young girl once

A
  I had dreams, I had high hopes

E
  Married a man, he stole my heart away

And all that you have is your soul

D
  Why was I such a young fool

A
 Thought I'd make history, making babies was the best I could do

E
  Thought I'd make something that could be mine forever

 Found out the hard way one can't possess another

And all that you have is your soul

D
  I thought, thought I could find a way

A
 to beat the system, to make a deal and have no debts to pay

E
  Take it all, I'd take it all, I'd run away

D
Me for myself, first class and first rate

    A            E            A
But all that you have is your soul
| A Asus4 A | Asus2 | Asus2 A Asus2 | [Chorus]

D
  Here I am, I'm waiting for a better day

A
  A second chance, a little luck to come my way

E
 A hope to dream, a hope that I can sleep again

D
 And wake in a world with a clear conscience and clean hands

'Cause all that you have is your soul
