Same Old Life
The same mistakes. The same ghosts. The same old story told one more time.
Lyrics
Verse 1
I met her on... a Monday morning
All sweet nothings and sympathy
By Tuesday evening I was bust and broken
Ain't no telling what a fool believes
What a fool believes
What a fool believes
Verse 2
I laid my cards right out on the table
Believed Lady Luck was on my side
But the deck she was dealing from was loaded
I bet my heart and lost my pride
Chorus
Same old story, same old song and dance
A losing hand in love's sweet game
A gambling man, I'll take another chance
Same old life, same old ways
guitar solo
Bridge
All those good times and golden promises
I watched them wash right on down the drain
Now all I got left is what I'm standing in
And a one-way ticket for that downtown train
guitar solo
Chorus
Same old story, same old song and dance
A losing hand in love's sweet game
A gambling man, I'll take another chance
Same old life, same old ways
Outro]
Same old story, same old song and dance
A losing hand in love's sweet game
A gambling man, I'll take another chance
Same old life, same old ways
