  O lord I think I'm falling to my disbelief

I'm cursing like a sailor and lying like a thief

It's hard to heed the calling from the better side of me

         C5            G5             D5                  D5
When I'm blaming everybody else and no one's coming clean

And the demons of a lesser me are beckoning me in

C5                   G5              D5                    D5
Those who gathered 'round me - I'm watching them all leave

        C5         E5     D5     G5
Cause I am my own ragged company


        C5              G5        D5                 D5
You can take a trip to china or take a boat to Spain

C5                   G5             D5                     D5
Unless the trip you take is in to change your cruel course

That I am my own ragged company

Cause I am my own ragged company
