There were times I wasn’t kind

And there were times I wasn’t even around
[D]		    [A]		   [G]
And there were times I made you cry

So many times I had to say goodbye
[A]		          [G]
When you want to talk I’m on the phone

I’m gonna stand by my woman now
              [D]     [D7]         [G]   [A]
‘Cause I can’t live my life alone     without a home
