Get It Right

Intro: Bm  A  G

Bm           G
What have I done?
                D
I wish I could run,
                A
Away from this ship going under,
Bm              G
Just trying to help
               D
out everyone else
                A
Now I feel the weight of the world is
Bm A   G    A
On my shoulders

D                          A
What can you do when your good isn´t good enough
    Bm           A             G
And all that you touch tumbles down?
      D                       A
Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things,
Bm            A         G
I just wanna fix it somehow
     Bm      A             G
But how many times will it take?
   Bm        A             G
oh, how many times will it take for me
          D   A
To get it right?
          Bm A   G
To get it ri-ii-ight?

Bm           G
Can I start again,
               D
With my fate again?
                  A
Cause I can´t go back and endure this
Bm              G
I just have to stay
               D
And face my mistakes,
                A
But if I get stronger and wiser,
Bm    A    G      A
I´ll get through this

D                           A
What can you do when you're good isn´t good enough?
    Bm           A              G
And all that you touch tumbles down?
      D                       A
Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things,
  Bm         A         G
I just wanna fix it somehow
    Bm       A             G
But how many times will it take?
    Bm       A             G
oh, how many times will it take for me
           D    A
To get it right?

G                  Bm
So I throw up my fists,
                      G
throw a punch in the air,
                           A                    G
And accept the truth that sometimes life isn´t fair!
                       Bm                        G
Yeah, I´ll send down a wish and I´ll send up a prayer
             A           G              D
Then finally someone will see how much I care

D                          A
What can you do when your good isn´t good enough
     Bm           A             G
And all that you touch tumbles down?
       D                       A
Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things,
  Bm          A         G
I just wanna fix it somehow
     Bm       A            G
But how many times will it take?
   Bm        A            G
oh how many times will it take for me
          D    A
To get it right?
          Bm A   G
To get it ri-ii-ight?

* <-- Mute that chord


F(high)*          D#*
I've been told to get what you want,
C#*            D#*           F(high)*
You just gotta give what you can.
F(high)*    D#*
But I know, that what I want
C#*              D#*     F(high)*
It don't come as easy as that
F(high)       D#
Look out boy, tomorrow comes
C#                 D#        F(high)
And things will be better by then
F(high)                    D#
But I look out the window, look in the mirror
C#       D# F(high)
Same old me again
F(high)         A#(high)   A(high) C
Still Can't get right X4
C             C#
And for all I know, I swear I never will
(Intro Riff)

F(high)*           D#*
Do you think you'd sell your soul
C#*              D#*            F(high)*
To just have one thing turn out right
F(high)*                 D#*
For the thousandth time, your turn and find
C#*              D#*           F(high)*
It just makes no difference to try
F(high)               D#
Like Holden Caulfield I tell myself
C#                D#       F(high)
There's got to be a better way
F(high)           D#
But I lay in bed, stare at the ceiling
C#       D#       F(high)
Dream of brighter days
F(high)            A#(high)  A(high)  C
Still Can't get it right X4
C             C#
And for all I know, I swear I never will
D#     C#   F
No way out, same old stuff always drags me down
D#     C#   F
No way out, never gonna get it right now
(Intro Riff)

F(high) D#  C# D#  F(high)
No way out, No way out
F(high) D#  C# D#  F(high)
No way out, no way out
F(high)            A#(high)  A(high) C
Still can't get it right X4
C             C#    C#*     C#*     C#*     C#*     C#*   C#*   C#*
And for all I know, I swear I swear I swear I never never never never
