You're the sweetest mistake I ever made

I've heard it said your life is strewn with broken hearts

Of fools like me who make mistakes and aren't very smart

But I took the chance and threw my life away

For you're the sweetest mistake I ever made

You're the sweetest mistake I ever made the price of loving you I'll gladly pay

The decent life I lived before you came I'll gladly trade

For the sweetest mistake I ever made

[ guitar + fiddle ]

There's been many times that you have made me cry

But still you took the cold out of my empty lonely life

But the things most people treasure I would give away

For the sweetest mistake I ever made

You're the sweetest mistake...

You're the sweetest mistake I ever made
