I think this is 100% correct

***READ FIRST:***
there are two ways to play each chord, I'll give u the simple way and the "evan way" :) 
personally I think evan's way is much cooler. 
BUT if u play the evan chords use them only in the verses, for chorus and bridge use the easy way.

[Verse 1]
EWhat if she got in the car?
And they Bnever even crashed.
Would it C#mchange who we all are?
Would I Ahave this photograph?
Now I Ewonder everyday, how a Btelephone pole missed him.
I'm so gC#mlad he stayed awake - 'Cause I dAon't think I'd be living.
[Pre Chorus:]
ADon't be aEshamed, 
You Bmade a C#mmistake.
We'll Aall be oBkay.
[Chorus:]
And Ethings go wrong, Bsometimes we fall.
C#mThe world turns and we Bmove along, and Athat's what Bmakes us C#mwho we aBre.
ESo just be strong, 'CaBuse life's not long.
C#mBefore ya know it we'll aBll be gone, 
And Athis will bBe the C#mlast tBoday, e-Ev-e-r Boh C#moh oh Aoh
[Verse 2:]
Well the Edoctor's sad to say, that they tBhought he may not make it.
As the C#mtears spilled down her face, she Ashouted 'I can't take this.'
Now I Ewonder everyday, about the stBuff he must be thinking.
I just C#mdon't know how to say, that I Awish you would stop drinking.
[Pre Chorus:]
AYou're not to Eblame.
We've alBl made C#mmistakes.
And Ait is oBkay.
[Chorus:]
And Ethings go wrong, Bsometimes we fall.
C#mThe world turns and we Bmove along, and Athat's what Bmakes us C#mwho we aBre.
ESo just be strong, 'CaBuse life's not long.
C#mBefore ya know it we'll aBll be gone, 
And Athis will bBe the C#mlast tBoday
