SCARS VERSE Tommy pulled a cigarette from his pocket That he stole from his father Lit a match and passed it around To all the boys the playground I stared as it was handed to me And tried to decide if I was gonna be The only one who was gonna chicken out I didn’t worry I’d get addicted Or what the surgeon general said I just took two puffs and tried not to cough my lungs out CHORUS: But hey You live, you learn You make mistakes And then you learn how to live with Those same mistakes you make You stand up, you fall down On your way around to who you are The best lessons in life You learn from the Scars VERSE I graduated and moved to the city I took my guitar and my Jenny with me And promised her someday I’d be a star Jenny took a waitress job to pay the rent I wish i could say back then I knew how much that meant But I just ignored that part And on the night that she moved back home I was playing on the road For seven drunks in the lounge of the Days Inn motel (TO CHORUS) BRIDGE But life has a way of knowing when to turn the pages You wind and try to find your way and then you find out where your place is… VERSE Tonight as I lay down beside my wife I take quiet stock of my life And think about all the things That really matter to me Like how to be a better husband A better father, and calling my brother Just to shoot the breeze As I close my eyes I say a prayer Run my hands through Jenny’s long hair (TO CHORUS) (c) 2007.
