   F                  Bbmaj7           
If heartaches brought fame  
   C7          F 
In loves crazy game  
         Bmaj7  C7    F     Intro    
I'd be a legend in my time  
If they gave gold statuettes  
For tears and regrets  
         Bmaj7  C7    F    Bb  F 
I'd be a legend in my time  
 
         A           A7  
But they don't give awards  
            D            D7   
And there's no praise or fame 
      G                 G7   
For a heart that's been broken  
     C              C7 
over love that's in vain  
 
If lonliness meant world acclaim  
Everyone would know my name  
I'd be a legend in my time
