INTRO: C G/B Am F Dm F C
If[C] only I?d have li[G/B]stened to [Am]all of my closest f[F]riends
And[C] knew that it was [G/B]over and the p[Am]arty had to [F]end
If[C] only I?d have n[G/B]oticed the s[Am]adness in her e[F]yes
She?d[Dm] still be in my a[F]rms tonight, if o[C]nly
If[C] only I?d have r[G/B]ealized the unim[Am]portance of being c[F]ool
To [C]give a kiss and [G/B]maybe just say ?d[Am]arling I love yo[F]u?
If[C] only I?d said I?m [G/B]sorry, I?d have [Am]been a much better [F]man
She?d[Dm] still be in my a[F]rms tonight, if o[C]nly
There?s an[Am] emptiness that f[C]ills my heart
[Em]Now that she?s not h[C]ere
I [Am]loved her more than my o[F]wn life
S[Am]omething I?ve always [Dm]feared[F], if o[C]nly
If[C] only I had come [G/B]home that night
Instead of s[Am]tayin? out for one more d[F]rink
If[C] only I?d been u[G/B]nconcerned what the o[Am]ther guys may thi[F]nk
If[C] only I?d have held her [G/B]tight, but I [Am]guess it?s too late [F]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 we?ve [Am]had
You l[C]ive some [G] and you le[F]arn some, if o[C]nly
BRIDGE: Ab Eb Bb F Ab Eb Bb C

[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
She?[Dm]d still be in my a[F]rms tonight, if o[C]nly
But it?s o[Am]nly love and lov[C]e ain?t real
[Em]It?s only a four letter w[C]ord
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
