  			G                                         C 
How proud I would have been to share your life of sin 

            D7                     G 
But you saw someone new I wouldn't do for you 

                                 C 
I wouldn't mind at all to let my morale's fall 

            D7                               G 
I'd like to try again how proud I would have been 


                                      C 
Don't think that I'm above selling my soul for love 

              D7                         G 
And if that's what it cost then take the price tag off 

                                      C 
Without your love I'll be a whole lot less than me 

            D7                               G 
I'd like to try again how proud I would have been 


  C                          G 
A sinners just an angel that slipped and fell 

    C                               D7 
For one like you I'd play a sinners part so well 

    G                                C 
I'd stoop to any length to gain your love it seems 

            D7                               G 
I'd like to try again how proud I would have been 


  C                          G 
A sinners just an angel that slipped and fell 

    C                               D7 
For one like you I'd play a sinners part so well 

    G                                C 
I'd stoop to any length to gain your love it seems 

            D7                               G 
I'd like to try again how proud I would have been
