Nothing I Can Do About It Now

Nothing I Can Do About It Now recorded by Willie Nelson written by Beth Nielsen Chapman [Verse 1] I’ve got a lo--ng list of real good reasons For all the things I’ve done. I’ve got a picture in the back of my mind Of what I’ve lost and what I’ve won. [Verse 2] I’ve surv--ived every situation Knowing when to freeze and when to run. And regret is just a memory -- written on my brow And there’s nothing I can do about it now. [Verse 3] I’ve got a wild and a restless spirit I held my price through every deal. I’ve seen the fire of a woman’s scorn Turn her heart of gold to steel. [Verse 4] I’ve got the song of the voice inside me Set to the rhythm of the wheel. And I’ve been dreaming like a child Since the cradle broke the bow. And there’s nothing I can do about it now. [Chorus] Running through the changes Going through the stages Coming round the corners in my life. Leaving doubt to fate Staying out too late Waiting for the moon to say goodni-i-hi-hi-hight. [Verse 5] I could cry for the time I’ve wasted But that’s a waste of time and tears. And I know just what I’d change If went back in time somehow. But there’s nothing I can do about it now. [Instrumental Refrain] [Chorus] Running through the changes Going through the stages Coming round the corners in my life. Leaving doubt to fate Staying out too late Waiting for the moon to say goodni-i-hi-hi-hight. [Verse 5] (repeated) And I could cry for the time I’ve wasted But that’s a waste of time and tears. And I know just what I’d change If went back in time somehow. But there’s nothing I can do about it now. [Outro] I’m forgiving everything--that forgiveness will allow And there’s nothing I can do about it now.
