Alecia Nugent - It Won't Be Me
Capo: 2nd Fret
GSo your bags are all Cpacked and you're Dleaving
Without Gso much as Ctelling me Dwhy
Pardon Gme if I Cskip all the Dgrieving
And Gsimply get Con with my Dlife
'cause I Cknow that they'll come a Dday
It'll come Gback on you and you'll Dpay
Chorus:
But it won't be Cme you'll answer Dto
When the judgment Garrives and your penance is Cdue
Forgiveness may Gcome for the tEmhings that you've Gdone
For your CdisGhonesDty, but Cit won't be Gme
Well it Ggoes against Cmy christian Draising
To be Gfeeling the Cway that I Dam
I should Gget on my Cknees and start Dpraying
For your Gabsolution but I've Ctried and I Dcan't
After what Cyou did to me and to Dus
You've Cbetrayed all my love and my Dtrust
Chorus:
But it won't be Cme you'll answer Dto
When the judgment Garrives and your penance is Cdue
Forgiveness may Gcome for the tEmhings that you've Gdone
For your CdisGhonesDty, but Cit won't be Gme
Now this Cisn't a threat or a Dcurse
Just Cremember you heard it here Dfirst
Chorus:
But it won't be Cme you'll answer Dto
When the judgment Garrives and your penance is Cdue
Forgiveness may Gcome for the tEmhings that you've Gdone
For your CdisGhonesDty, but Cit won't be Gme
