[Verse]
Dm Am G C
All the kings and queens in the Bible
Dm Am G
They could not turn back time
Dm Am G C
So what chance have I of a miracle
Dm Am G
In this life of mine?
[Chorus]
G F
I only want one day
G C
To unsay the things I said
Am
Undo the thing I did
F G
Twenty four little hours
G C
Oh, God, please wipe them all away
Am F
And I promise I will change
G C
If I could start today again
[Interlude]
G Am Am F F G
[Verse]
Dm Am G C
I know I'm not the milk and honey kind
Dm Am G
Today I proved it true
Dm Am G C
When the red mist falls around my eyes
Dm Am G
I know not what I do
[Chorus]
G F
Please give me back today
G C
And I won't say the things I said
Am
Or do that thing I did
F G
Every minute, every hour
G C
The replay's just the same
Am F
And I can't stand the shame
G C
Oh, let me start today again
[Interlude]
G Am Am F F G C G Am Am F F G
[Chorus]
G F
I only want one day
G C
One lousy day, that's all
Am
Of every day that's been before
F G
Since time began
G C
I know my prayer's in vain
Am F
But for a second I'll pretend
G C
That I can start today again
