God Bless This Mess Bon Jovi

[Verse 1]
I got some blood under my nails
I got some mud on my face
My voice is shot, I'm going grey
These muscles all ache
Don't cry for me, I'm the life of the party
I'm smiling most of the time
I may be gritting my teeth, can't get back where we started
These days I'm doing just fine

[Chorus]
God bless this mess, this mess is mine
Won't pound my chest or criticize
I must confess, I've lived, I've died
God bless this mess, this mess is mine
God bless this mess, this mess is mine

[Verse 2]
I knew every buried body, paid for each headstone
I may have led the prayers in public, but I cried alone
Found God through sin, but this ain't my confession
I'll wait on judgement day
It's lose or win, got no need for protection
Stand up or out of my way

[Chorus]
God bless this mess, this mess is mine
Won't pound my chest or criticize
I must confess, I've lived, I've died
God bless this mess, this mess is mine
God bless this mess, this mess is mine
