Capo I or IV (they actually play it on Iv but I find it easier to sing with the capo on the first fret)
[Verse 1]
single strumming
Should've Gkissed you there
I should've Dheld your face
I should've Emwatched those eyes
Instead of Crun in place
I should've Gcalled you out
I should've Dsaid your name
I should've Emturned around
I should've Clooked again
[Chorus]
But Doh, EmI'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
EmI 'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
EmI 'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
As you Dturn, you Emtake your heart and Cwalk awaGy
[Verse 2](strumming)
Should've Gheld my ground
I could've Dbeen redeemed
For every Emsecond chance
That changed its Cmind on me
I should've Gspoken up
I should've Dproudly claimed
That oh my Emhead's to blame
For all mCy heart's mistakes
[Chorus]
But Doh, EmI'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
EmI 'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
EmI 'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
As you Dturn, you Emtake your heart and Cwalk awaGy
[Bridge]
And Git's yDou, and Emit's yCou
And Git's yDou, and Emit's yCou
And it's Gfalling Ddown, as you Emwalk aCway
And it's Gon me nDow, as you EmgoD  
[Chorus]
But Doh, EmI'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
EmI 'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
EmI 'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
As you Dturn, you Emtake your heart and Cwalk awaGy
And it's Gfalling Ddown, as you Emwalk aCway
And it's Gon me nDow, as you EmgoD  
[Chorus]
But Doh, EmI'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
EmI 'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
EmI 'm staring at the Cmess I GmadeD  
As you Dturn, you Emtake your heart and Cwalk away
