             Cm   Gm7 
I've paid my dues 
           Cm   Gm7 
Time after time 
             Cm       Gm7 
I've done my sentence 
                 Cm    Gm7 
But committed no crime 
           D#    G#/D# 
And bad mistakes, 
            D#    G#/D# 
I've made a few 
            D#            A#/D          Cm 
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face 
    F         A# 
But I've come through 
                 F7sus4/A# A#  F7sus4/A# A#  F7sus4/A# C 
And I need to go on,       and on,       and on,   and on

              Cm   Gm7 
I've taken my bows 
               Cm   Gm7 
And my curtain calls 
               Cm                                      Gm7 
You brought me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it 
            Cm   Gm7 
I thank you all 
                        D#    G#/D# 
But it's been no bed of roses 
            D#     G#/D# 
No pleasure cruise  
                D#                   A#/D        Cm 
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race  
    F             A# 
And I ain't gonna lose 
                   F7sus4/A# A#  F7sus4/A# A#  F7sus4/A# C 
And I need just go on,       and on,       and on,   and on
