INTRO: C G/B Am F Dm F C
If[C] only Iâ??d have [G/B]listened t[Am]o all of my closest[F] friends
And[C] knew that it was [G/B]over and the p[Am]arty had to [F]end
If[C] only Iâ??d have[G/B] noticed the[Am] sadness in her[F] eyes
Sheâ?[Dm]?d still be in my[F] arms tonight, if[C] only
If[C] only Iâ??d have[G/B] realized the un[Am]importance of being[F] cool
To [C]give a kiss and [G/B]maybe just say â?[Am]?darling I love [F]youâ??
If[C] only Iâ??d said Iâ[G/B]??m sorry, Iâ??d[Am] have been a much b[F]etter man
Sheâ?[Dm]?d still be in my[F] arms tonight, if[C] only
Thereâ??s [Am]an emptiness that[C] fills my heart
[Em]Now that sheâ??s not[C] here
I [Am]loved her more than my o[F]wn life
S[Am]omething Iâ??ve alway[Dm]s fear[F]ed, if[C] only
If[C] only I had come [G/B]home that night
Instead of s[Am]tayinâ?? out for one more[F] drink
If[C] only Iâ??d been[G/B] unconcerned what the[Am] other guys may t[F]hink
If[C] only Iâ??d have held he[G/B]r tight, but [Am]I guess itâ??s too l[F]ate now
O[Dm]h how blind could [F]one man be, if o[C]nly
Woah oh but[F] I will [G]not be s[C]ad after a[F]ll the f[G]un weâ??v[Am]e had
You l[C]ive some [G] and you le[F]arn some, if o[C]nly
BRIDGE: G# D# Bb F G# D# Bb C
[F] [C] [Dm] [F] [C] [Dm]
[C] [Bb] [C] [Am] [Bb] [C] [F]
If[C] only I could c[G/B]onvince her the im[Am]portance of one more ch[F]ance
If[C] only God would a[G/B]llow me [Am]one more celestial d[F]ance
If[C] only I had the n[G/B]erve to call her[Am] up and tell her how I f[F]eel
Sheâ[Dm]??d still be in my[F] arms tonight, if[C] only
But itâ??s[Am] only love and l[C]ove ainâ??t real
[Em]Itâ??s only a four letter[C] word
We spen[Am]d half our lives chasing a[F]fter it
How w[Am]onderfully absu[Dm]rd, [F]if on[C]ly
Woah woah bu[F]t I will [G]not be [C]sad after [F]all the f[G]un we [Am]had
You l[C]ive some[G] and you le[F]arn some
Woah but[F] I will not [G]be sa[C]d after a[F]ll the f[G]un that we [Am]had
You l[C]ive som[G]e and you le[F]arn some
You l[F]earn some, if on[C]ly
Enjoy!
