over a [F] couple of [C] beers the other [Bb] night [C]  
Now [F] I'm serving [C] time for mis-[Bb] takes [C] 
made by a-[Dm] nother in a-[Am] nother life-[Bb] time [C]   
{soc} 
How [F] long till my [C] soul gets it [Bb] right?

[Dm] I'm not making a [Bb] joke, you know me
I take [Dm] everything so [Bb] seriously
If we [Dm] wait for the time till all [Bb] souls get it right

In my [F] lifetime - [C] I'm still not [Bb] right [C]
