[Intro]
E   E   E   A
[Verse 1]
EI can't take back the Bthings I said to Ayou in the past
Or Emake you forget the Breasons why Awe didn't last
[Pre-Chorus]
BI'm haunted by what Amight have been
BStill I can't change who I Awas Eback Athen
[Chorus]
EBut if I could hold you now, you'd see I've turned myself around
And now I'm someone you'd be proud to lovAe
EI'd do all the right things, make Bpromises that I'd keep
It Ahurt too much to let you down
And Ein my arms there'd Bbe no room for Adoubt
If I could Ahold Byou Enow
[Verse 2]
EIt's funny how this Bempty room makes it Aall too clear
When I Elet you leave a Bpart of me Ajust disappeared
But if BI'd known then what I've Acome to know
BThere's no way I could have Alet Eyou Ago
[Pre-Chorus]
But if EI could hold you now you'd see I've turned myself around
And now I'm someone you'd be proud to lAove
[Chorus]
EI'd do all the right things, make Bpromises that I'd keep
It Ahurt too much to let you down
And Ein my arms there'd Bbe no room for Adoubt
If I could Ahold Byou Enow

If I could hold you now
