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
