Nature of the Game
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Taking my time
Walking the line
For someone who doesn't care
Taking my time
Just walking the line
For someone who's never there
It's a fool's game--that I know
Nothing but a broken heart to show
And I know I'll never change
It's the nature of the game
She loves me--she loves me not
Remember how your heart used to stop
As the petals would hit the floor
How you wished there could be just one more
