Verse 1:
G5 F5 C5
I didn't cry
G5 F5 C5 G5 F5 C5
I just stood and watched her say goodbye
G5 F5 C5
She closed the do-or
G5 F5 C5 D5
And said "I don't want to see you anymore"
Chorus:
G5
Things I should have said to her
F5 C5 F5 C5 G5
That maybe would have changed her mind to stay
G5
Things I should have said to her
F5 C5 F5 C5 D5 D5
Like "girl, I love you so let love find a way"
Verse 2:
Was it that she
Just couldn't understand a man like me
Was I to blame
Did I leave too many things unexplained?
[repeat chorus]
Bridge:
B5 E5
Why didn't I try telling her
A5 D5
She was all I had
B5 E5
Why didn't I try telling her
A5 D5 D5 G5
Now she's gone and I feel oh so bad
