[Verse 1]

F Dm

I'd crawl through the desert on my hands and knees

rehearsing my pretty please

climb the highest mountain

if I were sorry

Shout it from the top

swim under water until my lungs exploded

walk into the fire

if I were sorry

[Bridge 1]

I'd run a thousand miles

F/A

wouldn't stop until I dropped

Bb Am C/G F

wouldn't take a break to breathe until I got close enough

Then I'd do it all again

F/A

if I really had the chance

Bb Am C/G

but I know deep inside for you it's just another

dance

[Chorus]

If I were sorry

I'd give you all the glory

if I were sorry

F Dm

If I were sorry

it would be a different story

If I were sorry

if I were sorry oh

[Verse 2]

F Dm

I'd hold my breath until my face turned blue

I'd take wow of silence

I wouldn't say a single word

until you really heard

if I were sorry

Now did you ever realise

If I were sorry

I'd be on my hands and knees

begging pretty please

if I were sorry

but I'm not sorry no
