[Verse 1]
G                       D
You knew when we had it good
G           Bm                A
I wanted to believe you but I never could
G                      D
You knew when I got it wrong
G                      Bm        A
And ended up like some old tired country song
G                        D
You were staring out the window
G                 Bm         A
Trying to imagine someplace else to go

[Bridge]
G                     D
But you won't find it there
          A       G
You won't find it anywhere
G                     D
No you won't find it there
          A       G
You won't find it anywhere

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
D              G       Bm  A
So don't turn off that song
D            G             Bm           A
Or switch it over there is nothing else on
D      G                  Bm           G
It's a shame we're always changing our mind
G                 A               D
Because we got it right the first time

[Verse 2]
G                               D
When you surprised me with that kiss
G                    Bm                 A
I though I'm looking forward to looking back on this
G                                D
You brought me home to meet your mother
G                      Bm       A
We had it best when we only had each other

[Bridge]
G                         D
You said let's get out of here
A             G
I don't know, let's go anywhere
G                D
Let's get out of here
A             G
I don't know, let's go anywhere

[Chorus]
D              G       Bm  A
So don't turn off that song
D            G             Bm           A
Or switch it over there is nothing else on
D      G                  Bm           G
It's a shame we're always changing our mind
G                 A               D
Because we got it right the first time

[Bridge]
G        A            D
I didn't know what to say
G               A             D
We shrugged our shoulders and walked away
G       A     Bm         G
I could never make up my mind
G                  A               D
Whereas you got it right the first time

[Chorus]
D              G       Bm  A
But don't turn off that song (Song)
D            G             Bm           A
Or switch it over there is nothing else on
D      G                  Bm           G
It's a shame we're always changing our mind
G                A                D
'cause we got it right the first time

[Outro]
G                A               D
'cause we got it right the first time
