Em
If I had my way
If I had to lose
Wouldn't take back one thing
Never had much to choose

Then it dawned on me
Comin' down on you
Like a cold sky rainin' under a burnin' moon

Been waitin' all your life, your wish is comin' true
Bless your heart for beatin', me right out of you

Chorus:
C         D
Miss the misery
 Em     Bm            C
Need a reason for a change
        D           Em
Need a reason to explain
           Bm
So turn it on again

C       D          Em
Don't change your mind
       Bm       C
You're wastin' light
    D            Em
Get in and let's go, go

What a nice long leash
What a nice tight noose
Never worked for me, but
Sure would look good on you

Been waitin' all your life, your wish is comin' true
Bless your heart for beatin', me right out of you

Chorus

Don't change your mind
You're wastin' light
Get in and let's go, go

C         D
Miss the misery
 Em     Bm            C
Need a reason for a change
C         D
Miss the misery
 Em      Bm           C
Give me reason to refrain
           D       Em
Miss your misery today
           Bm       C
Miss your misery today
             D             Em
Come on and turn it on for me!

Don't change your mind
You're wastin' light
Don't make this right
Don't make this right
Get in and let's go, go!
