BPM: 138 

Intro: 
G  D/F#  G Bm C 
G  D/F#  C  D/F# 


 
   G                  D/F# 
He sits on a barstool all alone, 
    C                         G 
His head hanging down looking all forlorn, 
G               D/F#             C 
Heart pounds as she walks in and asks, 
       G   D/F# 
"Can I sit too". 
 

 
G                     D/F# 
He makes room without saying a word, 
C                           G 
Barely holding on to whats left of his world, 
G                             D/F# 
I heard his heart break from across the room, 
       C                G  D/F# 
As she opened her mouth to say. 
 

 
          G                D/F# 
If I knew then what I know now, 
              G                C 
It could have been a different story, 
           G                      D/F# 
If I could only change things somehow, 
         C                   G    D/F# 
One more chance to get the ending right. 
 

 
G                   D/F# 
I know we tried our best to change, 
C                      G 
We talked for hours to work through the pain, 
G                D/F# 
I hate to be the one to call, 
  C            G   D/F# 
A final end to the day. 
 

 
G                           D/F# 
I brought the papers if you sign right here, 
C                        G 
Make official what we've known for years, 
G                D/F# 
Too little baby, just too late, 
C           G  D/F# 
I cant try anymore. 
 

 
          G                D/F# 
If I knew then what I know now, 
              G                C 
It could have been a different story, 
           G                      D/F# 
If I could only change things somehow, 
         C                   G    D/F# 
One more chance to get the ending right.

   G                   D/F# 
He took the pen and he signed his name, 
C                  G 
A little ink he conceded the game, 
G                    D/F# 
His voice was just a whisper, 
      C             G   D/F# 
As he turned to her and said. 
 

 
G                D/F# 
I'm sorry that I let you down, 
C            G 
Sorry that I wasn't around, 
G                  D/F# 
Im sorry that the man I am, 
      C               G  D/F# 
Isnt who you need me to be.
