I wish I had more nice things to say,
but I was raised not to lie.
I'm either honest or I'm an optimist,
but never both at the same time.
And everyone knows the deal,
gotta take what you can.
'cause anything I don't steal,
just winds up in someone else's hands.
There's only so much good a man can take,
when he ain't so good himself.
You remind me of what I could have been,
but that reminder ain't much help.
So it's better if you were on your way
if you were somewhere far from me.
So you can dream I turned out well,
and I, I can just go to sleep.
The woo's C, Am, Em, Fmaj7, Am,
I wish I had more nice things to say,
but I was raised not to lie.
I'm either honest or I'm an optimist,
but never both at the same time.
Hope this helped
