[Verse]
 D        Am            Bm       Am
How many years keep on slipping away
        G              F6            E7
And it seems that your life doesn't matter
   D7(#9)
You never had a chance
 D5         D7(#9) D5
--------|--------|--------|--------|
 D       Am         Bm        Am
How many ways is a love torn apart
         G            F6            E7
And you look to your heart for some answers
   D7(#9)
Don't let it slip away
 D5          D7(#9) D5

[Pre-Chorus]
   G7                                    Bb9                     B7 A7 Ab7
I can't blame myself anymore, I've been beaten and accused before
       G7                                              G7 Ab7 A7
Well I took some bad advice, and I paid too high a price
    B9                                     A7#9
I could sell my soul, you know I wouldn't think twice
 
[Chorus]
Dm        F           Am        Bb
How many times must a man fall down
        Dm      F       Am     Bb
I said whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh-ohoo
Dm        F             Am           Bb
How many dreams have to fall to the ground
        G7/B             C#+
It goes on an' on an' on an' on an' on, yeah

[Verse]
 D        Am           Bm           Am
How many times do you look for some sign
              G              F6            E7
That there's hope, and your life has some meaning
  D7(#9)
Almost every day,
 D5         D7(#9) D5

 G7                           Bb9                         B7 A7 Ab7
Maybe I was born to wander, I got no high hopes any longer
    G7                                      G7 Ab7 A7
So tell me my friend, just where does it end
    B9                                   A7#9
Is nothin' ever gonna free me from this hell I'm livin' in
 
[Chorus]
Dm        F           Am        Bb
How many times must a man fall down
        Dm      F       Am     Bb
I said whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh-ohoo
Dm        F             Am           Bb
How many dreams have to fall to the ground
        G7/B             C#+             Am
It goes on an' on an' on an' on an' on, yeah
