Pieces of My Life

A water glass full of whiskey

Women that I never knew too well

Lord, the things I've seen and done

Most of which I'd be ashamed to tell

I don't know how it started

That's what makes a man a man I guess

Now I'm holding on to nothing

Trying to forget the rest

I'm looking back on my life

To see if I can find the pieces

I know that some were stolen

And some just blew away

Well I've found the bad parts

Found all the sad parts

But I guess I threw the best parts away

Lord away, away

Playing the bars, playing like a star

Anything to get a name

Carrying on, living on songs

My friends wrote for me to sing

I'm looking back on my life

To see if I can find the pieces

I know that some were stolen

And some just blew away

Well, I've found the bad parts

Found all the sad parts

But I guess I threw the best parts away

Away, away

Lord, the pieces of my life

They're everywhere, they're everywhere

And the one I miss most of all

Is you and you-know-who

Looking back on my life, Lord

To see if I can find the pieces

Looking back on my life today

To see if I can find the pieces

Looking back on my life

God help me find the pieces
