I aBlmost got drunk at sF#chool at 14
Where I G#malmost made out with the homecEoming queen
Who Balmost went on to be F#miss texas
But lost G#mto a slut with much bigger brEeastes
I aBlmost dropped out to mF#ove to LA
Where I was aG#mlmost famous for almoEst a day
(chorus)
And I BalmosF#t had yG#mou
But I Eguess that doesn't cut it
ABlmost F#loved yG#mou
I almost wiEshed u would've loved me tBoo
{B—F#-G#m—E}
I almoBst held up a groceF#ry store
Where I alG#mmost did 5 years and then 7 Emore
Cuz I alBmost got popped for a fiF#ght with a thug
Cuz he alG#mmost made off with a buEnch of the drugs
That I Balmost got hooked on cuz yoF#mu ran away
And I wiG#msh I woulda had the nerve to Eask you to stay
(Chorus)
You kBept me guessing and nF#ow I guess that
I spG#ment my time missing yEou
                                     B-F#-G#m-E
I almost wish you would've loved me too
F#Here I go thinG#mking about all the tEhings I could've dBone
F#I'm gonna need G#ma forklift cuz all Ethe baggage weighs Ba ton
D#mI know we've haG#md our problems I canE't remember oneEm  
I almBost forgot to saF#y something else
And if I caG#mnt fit it in I'll keep Eit all to myself
I almBost wrote a song abF#out you today
But I toG#mre it all open and I thErew it away
And I BalmosF#t had yG#mou
