Verse 1
BmPeople say that tAogether we were both Gsides of the same coin
BmThat we would shine like VAenus in a clear night sGky
We thought our lEmove could overcF#mome the circGumstances
But my amEmbition wouldn't alF#mlow for comprAomise
I could see in the distance all the dreams that were clear to me
Every choice that I had to make left you on your own
Somehow the road we started down had split asunder
Too late to realise how far apart we'd grown
Chorus
DHow I wish I, D/Dbwish I'd done a little bit mBmoreA  
Now  ShoGulda woulda coulda, means I'm ouG/F#t of time
Coz ShoEmulda woulda coulda, can't chaAnge your mind
And I woDnder, wonder, woD/Dbnder what I'm gonna CdoBm  
SGhoulda woulda coulda are the last Awords of a fooDl
Verse 2
People ask how it feels to live the kind of life others dream about
I tell them everybody gotta face their highs and their lows
And in my life there's a love I put aside,
cause I was busy loving something else
So for every little thing you hold on to
you've got to let something else go
[Chorus]
GFool if I would now forsake the oppF#mortunities are fate
I Emknow I'm right where F#mI belong
But somGetimes when I'm nAot so strong I..
[Chorus]

Verse 1

Bm A G

People say that together we were both sides of the same coin

Bm A G

That we would shine like Venus in a clear night sky

Em F#m G

We thought our love could overcome the circumstances

Em F#m A

But my ambition wouldn't allow for compromise

I could see in the distance all the dreams that were clear to me

Every choice that I had to make left you on your own

Somehow the road we started down had split asunder

Too late to realise how far apart we'd grown

Chorus

D D/Db Bm A

How I wish I, wish I'd done a little bit more

G G/F#

Coz Shoulda woulda coulda, can't change your mind

D D/Db C Bm

And I wonder, wonder, wonder what I'm gonna do

G A D

Shoulda woulda coulda are the last words of a fool

Verse 2

People ask how it feels to live the kind of life others dream about

I tell them everybody gotta face their highs and their lows

And in my life there's a love I put aside,

cause I was busy loving something else

So for every little thing you hold on to

you've got to let something else go

[Chorus]

G F#m

Fool if I would now forsake the opportunities are fate

Em F#m

I know I'm right where I belong

G A

But sometimes when I'm not so strong I..

[Chorus]
