Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]The day to day gets
you [Em]feel[D]ing down
It's been a week since
you went [Em]to to[D]wn
It's getting late so why haven't
you called your [G]friends
[D]Why haven't you made amends

[Verse 2]
It's [D]not the way that
[Em]you saw [D]your life
The one you love she's
[Bm]not [D]your w[A]ife[D]
You only wanted to make
your father proud

[Verse 3]
And buy your mom a new house
[D]
[G]If you could do it again
[Bm]How woul[G]d you do it
Would you go back and do what
you never got [D]round to
But you know yeah you know
that's [Bm]not h[A]ow i[G]t works
If you could be someone else
Would you [Em]do i[G]t
If you could choose from a shelf
Would you [Em]take a [D]new self
But you know yeah you know
that's [Bm]not how i[A]t works[D]
You want to start it all over again but yeah
You know that's not how it works
You want to start it all [G]over
[D]again [Bm]but yeah[A]
You know that's [G]not how [D]it works

[Verse 4]
[D]
You could have been a [Bm]contender [A]man[D]
You would have gathered [Em]a million [D]fans
You might have taken a [Bm]rock
[A]et to outer [D]space
Had in your pocket the human race

[Verse 5]
I [D]guess depends on [Bm]what you ex[A]pect[D]
But either way [Em]you must ac[D]cept
It's hard to stand by and
[Bm]see it all go [A]so f[Bm]ast
Not easy watching [D]the hero pass
[G]If

[Verse 6]
you could [Bm]do it again
How would [Em]you do [G]it
Would you go back and do what you
nev[F#m]er got[D] round to
But you know,
yeah you know that's [Bm]not how i[A]t [G]works
If you could be someone [Bm]else
[Em]Would you do [G]it
If you could choose from a shelf
Would you take a new self
[D]But you know yeah you know
that's not how it works
You want [F#m]to start it all
[Bm]over again but [D]yeah
You [G]know that's not how [D]it works
You want to start it all over
[Em]again but [D]yeah
You know that's [Bm]not how [D]it works

[Verse 7]

How would you [G]do it
Would you go back and do what
