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.
If heartaches brought fame
In loves crazy game
I'd be a legend in my time
If they gave gold statuettes
For tears and regrets
I'd be a legend in my time
But they don't give awards
And there's no praise or fame
For a heart that's been broken
Over love that's in vain
If lonliness meant world acclaim
Everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend in my time
If lonliness meant world acclaim
Everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend in my time
