I Ain't No Nice Guy

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.

When I was young I was the nicest guy I knew

I thought I was the chosen one

But time went by and I found out a thing or two

My shine wore off as time wore on

I thought that I was living out the perfect life

But in the lonely hours when the truth begins to bite

I thought about the times when I turned my back & stalled

I ain't no nice guy after all

When I was young I was the only game in town

I thought I had it down for sure,

But time went by and I was lost in what I found

The reasons blurred, the way unsure

I thought that I was living life the only way

But as I saw that life was more than day to day

I turned around, I read the writing on the wall

I ain't no nice guy after all

I ain't no nice guy after all

In all the years you spend between your birth and death

You find there's lots of times when you should have saved your breath

It comes as quite a shock when that trip leads to fall

I ain't no nice guy after all

I ain't no nice guy after all

When I was young I was the nicest guy I knew

I thought I was the chosen one

But time went by and I found out a thing or two

My shine wore off as time wore on

I thought that I was living out the perfect life

But in the lonely hours when the moon's the only light

I thought about the times when I turned my back & stalled

I ain't no nice guy after all

I ain't no nice guy after all
