Verse 1:
C                 D
  I saw my better half
    Em               G
The better half of a decade
C                 D
  Slip through my hands inside 
    Em              G
her hands inside my pockets
C          D                 Em   G
  When she reached for her advantages
                   C        D Em G
I should have done something


Interlude: C-D-Em-G- x2


Verse 2:
C          D
  I saw my baby boy 
Em              G
digging his own hole
C          D              Em     G
  Keeping alive family traditions
C         D            Em      G
  When he lied about intentions
                   C        D
I should have done something
                   Em       G
I should have done something


Chorus:
       D
Well I blame 
  G        C
myself for everything
   D        G          C
It keeps my conscience clean
D        G    C
I've got bandages 
   D       G
to prove it
   C       D
To prove it


Post Chorus: C-D-Em-G- x2


Verse 3:
C                 D
  I saw my better half

The better half of a decade
C                 D
  Slip through my hands inside 
    Em              G
her hands inside my pockets
C          D                 Em   G
  When she reached for her advantages
                   C        D
I should have done something
                   Em       G
I should have done something

I should have done something
                   C        D
I should have done something
                   Em       G
I should have done something
                   C        D Em G
I should have done something
