Standard (EADGBE)

 Verse chords –

 Chorus Chords – (no 3rd)

 Bridge –

all other chords should be depicted correctly by the website except for Amaj9(no 3rd)

which looks like this:

E|--0* (he doesn't play this low E note in the song but it doesn't hurt the song at all

to play it*)

he does a lot of picking behind the strumming the only part that is specific is the

Dmaj7 chord which will look like this when picked:

It was wishful thinking on my part

To think that what I said was the right thing to say at the right time and place

Oh so many mistakes I’ve made throughout the years

Made with so little grace yet so much fear

I could’ve just held my tongue and been a good son who met up to expectations

But I was just a lowly rebel who only wanted his liberation

I should’ve just

Gave In

It would’ve been

So much easier

But I am unfortunately exactly who I am

You say I could be less broken but I know it’s just surface you see

My heart would not be anymore rewarded my soul would not be any better off

But you just scoff at all my dreams, but nothing is as it seems

The strange boy from up on the street could sitting in the king’s seat

I should’ve just

Gave In

It would’ve been

So much easier

The darkness creeps up on everyone but my weapon is to reveal it’s power

to show it all to make you cower beneath it all

so that you’d see that it’s just routine and the darkness won’t seem so gleam.

My words were never an attempt to bring lasting despair they were just a vaccine but you

wouldn’t care.

You would rather remain blind to the onslaught but if you face head on it’s really just

in the thought.

And I know that I sounds strange and your opinions of me have probably not changed for better

but no regrets no regrets cause if you love where you or where you’re going then why

regret anything?

I should’ve just

Gave In (but I didn’t)

It would’ve been

So much easier (I’d hate myself)

I should’ve just

Gave In (but I didn’t)

It would’ve been

So much easier (I’d probably kill myself)
