"One Left In The Chamber" lyrics

"One Left In The Chamber"

There's the one I left unfinished, there's the one I can't explain
There's the one in Colorado, the one I wish I had again
There's the one I broke too easy, there's the one I couldn't break
There's the one I took too much of, there's all the shit I couldn't take
There's the one I ended up in, the one that ended all too soon
And the one left in the chamber oughta do

There's the one that was a long shot, there's the one that didn't pay
There's the one that kept me waiting till it cost too much to play
There's the one that kept me guessing, the one whose name I just can't say
There's the one I couldn't lose and then I lost it anyway
There's the one that should be over now, the one that should be through
And the one left in the chamber oughta do

There's the one that wouldn't listen, there's the one I couldn't hear
There's the one I took for granted, the one that up and disappeared
There's the one I think I learned from, the one I taught what not to do
There's the one I had to weather whether not I wanted to
There's the one I should've walked away from and come right to you
And the one left in the chamber oughta do
There's the one I should've walked away from and crawled right back to you
And the one left in the chamber oughta do
The one left in the chamber oughta do
