  • Did you know that you could be wrong
    And swear you’re right
    Some people been known to do it all their lives

    But you find yourself alone
    Just like you found yourself before
    Like I found myself in pieces on the hotel floor

    Hard times help me see
    I’m a good man with a good heart
    Had a tough time, got a rough start
    But I finally learned to let it go
    Now I’m right here, and I’m right now
    And I’m hoping, knowing somehow
    That my shadows days are over
    My shadow days are over now

    Well I ain't no trouble maker
    And I never meant her harm
    But it doesn’t mean I didn’t make it hard to carry on
    Well it sucks to be honest (honest)
    And it hurts to be real
    But its nice to make some love that I can finally feel

    Hard times let me be
    I’m a good man with a good heart
    Had a tough time, got a rough start
    But I finally learned to let it go
    Now I’m right here, and I’m right now
    And I’m hoping, knowing somehow
    That my shadows days are over
    My shadow days are over now

    I’m a good man with a good heart
    Had a tough time, got a rough start
    But I finally learned to let it go
    Now I’m right here, and I’m right now
    And I’m hoping, knowing somehow
    That my shadows days are over
    My shadow days are over now Writer/s: JOHN MAYER
