Should Have Been You

C C/B F G 2x
Am G F
Fm C

[Verse 1]
C
The way you brushed your hair
           C/B
From those big brown eyes I swear
    Bb
You stole my heart each time
       F
What a beautiful crime
     Fm                     C     E       Am
It's easy now to understand how I fell in love
    F                 G
But sometimes love is not enough

[Verse 2]
          C
There was something in your smile
C/B                           Bb
Made me feel like I was in an endless summer day
         F
Yeah, we had it made
Fm                          C     E       Am
It's easy now to understand how I fell in love
F                     G
But sometimes love is not enough

[Chorus]
                    C C/B F          G
It should have been you, waking me in bed
                   C C/B
It should have been you
              F         G
But it's your memory instead
Am            G            F         Fm
Now regret is all I get to hold on to
                    C  Bb
It should have been you

[Bridge]
F                              C
I'm not saying we should make another run
                     F            C    Bb
No we tried that one way too many times
Eb                                 Bb
I can't keep my heart from wishin' what it wants
                  G
Lord knows I don't keep you off my mind

[Chorus]
                    C C/B F                 G
It should have been you chasing dreams with me
                   C C/B
It should have been you
            F               G
But now I'm breaking at the seams
Am            G            F         Fm
Now regret is all I get to hold on to
                   Am G F
It should have been you
                   Am G F
It should have been you
Am*           G*           F*
Now regret is all I get to hold on to
