D              Em
Never had the best intentions
Bm            A
Knew it all along
D              Em
I know that I never mentioned
Bm               A
That I did you wrong

                     G      A
And all the time it takes away
               G       A
I don't wanna wait to say

Chorus:
D   A/C# Bm   A   G
I'm the  one to blame
  D/F#     G
I lost my way
    D/F#      G
And it still hurts
    A
To say
D   A/C# Bm    A   G
I'm the  one who changed
      D/F#    G
Never got to say
  D/F#     G
I lost my way
     A
Oh, no

I know that the Lord forgives me
That don't make it right
Everything that lives in darkness
Someday comes to light

And all the time it takes away
I don't wanna wait to say

Chorus

Bm      A                G A
Nobody lives without regret
Bm              A
But you can forgive
            G A
You can forget

Chorus:
That I'm the one to blame
I lost my way
And it still hurts
To say
I'm one who changed (Who changed)
Never got to say
I lost my way
Oh, no
I lost my way
And it still hurts
To say
I'm one who changed (Who changed)
Never got to say
I lost my way
Oh, no
Oh, no
