A water glass full of whiskey Women that I never knew too well Lord, the things I've seen and done Most of which I'd be ashamed to tell I don't know how it started That's what makes a man a man, I guess Now I'm holdin' on to nothin' Tryin' to forget the rest I'm lookin' back on my life To see if I can find the pieces I know that some were stolen And some just blew away Well, I've found the bad parts Found all the sad parts But I guess, I threw the best parts away Lord, away, away Playing the bars, playing like a star Anything to get a name Carryin' on, livin' on songs My friends wrote for me to sing I'm lookin' back on my life To see if I can find the pieces I know that some were stolen And some just blew away Well, I've found the bad parts Found all the sad parts But I guess, I threw the best parts away Away, away Lord, the pieces of my life They're everywhere, they're everywhere And the one I miss most of all Is you and you know who Lookin' back on my life, Lord To see if I can find the pieces Lookin' back on my life today To see if I can find the pieces Lookin' back on my life God, help me find the pieces
