Verse 1:
    C5        C5
The flowers you gave me
    C5            F5
Are just about to die
       D5
When I think about
     C5
What could've been
   D5               G5 G5
It makes me want to cry
    C5            C5
The sweet words you whispered
C5            F5
Didn't mean a thing
  D5                C5
I guess our song is over
D5               G5 G5
  As we begin to sing


Chorus:
F5                C5
Could've been so beautiful
D5                 C5    C5
  Could've been so right
F5                  C5
  Could've been my lover
D5             G5 G5
  Every day of my   life
F5                C5
Could've been so beautiful
E5                  A5   E5 G5 D5
  Could've been so right
F5                    C5
I'll never hold what could've been
     D5       G5
On a cold and lonely night


Post chorus: Csus- - C- - Csus- - G--


Verse 2: ??? = unknown chord,if you know just tell me guys
    C5           C5
The members of our loving
      C5            F5
Still linger in the air
         D5                  C5
Like the faded scent of your roses
D5                       G5 G5
  They stay with me everywhere
     A5            E5
Everytime I get my hopes up
     G5              D5
They always seem to fall
      D5                    A5
Still what could've been is better than
           D5       ???        D5 G5 - G5
What could never be chor be at all


(Repeat Chorus)
