I ve got no one to call my own

I walk down Peachtree Avenue

I never thought that I d stoop quite so low
Bm E Bm F#
You had no choice but to up and go you felt so rejected
Chorus:
G5 D A
I crashed with the wheels still spinning,

Chorus:
G5 D A
I know I should be feeling,
Fm D D7
a lot worse than I do

But I m done with pain from kneeling,
Fm D D7
And the sky s still coloured blue
G5 A D Dsus4
Dsus2 D
This time I had to lose to win
