Rick Springfield - When God Forgets My Name Chords

[Intro]
 
Em C G D Em C G D
 
 
[Verse]
 
Em            C                   G                D         Em
Yeah I constantly wake up feeling somehow just the same as I did
        C                  G               D             Em
And I'm always looking for someone else to blame, God forbid
        C           G                D
Nothing changes but somehow it never stays the same
Em                  C         G             D               Em
And I feel like the unpopular kid in a high school kickball game
             C               G              D
Yeah, I know there can be no fire without a flame
     Em           C             G             D
As I look for the reason I've become what I became
       Em           C          G            D
When inside I know exactly the one who's to blame
    Em       C           G
The insecure kid with regrets
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D           Em   C  G
When God forgets my name (I will not let you sink and drown)
    D         Em   C   G
And I have to bear the pain (We are children as London Bridge falls down)
   D             Em   C    G
Am I supposed to play this game (We are one and I will not back down)
D           Em      C   G
When God forgets my name
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Em               C                G             D          Em
The years passed so fast I wasn't ready to be a man, but I was
              C                G             D             Em
And I went without a vision without a master plan into the jaws
      C              G             D
Of my future like an unskilled artisan
        Em           C               G              D
Looking constantly behind me for the childhood bogeyman
   Em          C            G             D
My feet flying faster but I just never outran
    Em             C            G         D
The dream that had ended long before it began
      Em         C              G            D
And I realize my life is just a flash in the pan
     Em            C           G
I'm alone when the sun finally sets
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
D           Em   C  G
When God forgets my name (I will not let you sink and drown)
    D         Em   C   G
And I have to bear the pain (We are children as London Bridge falls down)
   D             Em   C    G
Am I supposed to play this game (We are one and I will not back down)
D           Em   C  G
When God forgets my name
 
 
[Bridge]
 
  Em           C           G             D        Em
I longed to be someone the leader of the band for you
             C           G              D          Em
Nothing ever turned out exactly like Id planned so true
           C               G               D
The ground trembled when I finally made my stand
          Em          C             G
But I was lost in the smoke and cigarettes
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
D           Em   C  G
When God forgets my name (I will not let you sink and drown)
    D         Em   C   G
And I have to bear the pain (We are children as London Bridge falls down)
   D             Em   C    G
Am I supposed to play this game (We are one and I will not back down)
D           Em      C  G
When God forgets my name
 
 
[Chorus 4]
 
D           Em   C  G
When God forgets my name (I will not let you sink and drown)
    D         Em   C   G
And I have to bear the pain (We are children as London Bridge falls down)
   D             Em   C    G
Am I supposed to play this game (We are one and I will not back down)
D           Em      C  G D Em C G D Em C G D Em C G D Em
When God forgets my name
