Intro  F#m  D  E 

Verse. 
A                   E   
Another cigarette, whatever I can get 
F#m                 D 
Everything I had I left behind 
A                     E    
Pictures of the past, Things that never last 
F#m                              D    
But satisfaction is... oh it's state of mind 

F#m        C#m           Bm              A   
Somehow, someway, With nothin' left to lose 
F#m               C#m                D          E 
The past has got me searching for someone like you 

 
A                          E 
Put another candle in the wind 
                                     F#m 
It's just another thing that I can't fix 
                               D 
Play another game that I can't win 
              E7            A              
But I'm not leaving it like this 
                              E 
Maybe I should find a common ground 
                               F#m 
Scratch another problem off my list 
                              D 
Go ahead and kick me when I'm down 
             E               F#m 
But I'm not leaving it like this 

(F#m) E D E7 


Verse. 
A                   E   
Make another note, Letters that I wrote 
F#m                               D 
I guess you should've known that I'd let you down 
A                          E    
I heard it all before, I been through every door 

F#m                              D    
But don't you be so quick, To count me out 
F#m                  C#m         Bm              A   
You tried to knock me down, You kicked me in my head 
F#m                 C#m         D               E 
You got me on the ground, But I'm not finished yet 

Chorus. 
Put another candle in the wind 
It's just another thing that I can't fix 
Play another game that I can't win 
But I'm not leaving it like this 
Maybe I should find a common ground 
Scratch another problem off my list 
Go ahead and kick me when I'm down 
But I'm not leaving it like this 

Solo. 

F#m                  C#m         Bm              A   
You tried to knock me down, You kicked me in my head 
F#m                 C#m         D               E 
You got me on the ground, But I'm not finished yet 


Chorus x2 
Put another candle in the wind 
It's just another thing that I can't fix 
Play another game that I can't win 
But I'm not leaving it like this 
Maybe I should find a common ground 
Scratch another problem off my list 
Go ahead and kick me when I'm down 
But I'm not leaving it like this
