REGRETS – Kenny Rankin
Intro: A9-FM7/A-E7sus-E7  
I wA9ish that I could take back              With A9every angry word I said
All the tAM7hings I've done to hurt you       Your lAM7ove for me was dying
                  A7F#7sus                                    A7F#7sus
I didn't mean to be so cruel               Each word left a lasting scar
Yet I kBm7now that I've been selfish          And right Bm7now I feel so 
                          D  E7sus-E7-
And at times, a jealous fool                     helpless
                                           WishiDn’ I could change the way
                                                       A9  E7sus-E7  
And every thoughtless thing I've done            things are
Keeps AM7comin' back to haunt me
A7                      F#7sus             (Repeat chorus except last word)
'Cause you took each one too hard
         Bm7                               Coda: (fade)
And as I realize that it's my fault
 D                    E7sus-E7             (Chorus chords except last word)
We've grown worlds apart                   Regrets, regrets
                                           For my mistake in thinkin’ only               
                                                 of myself
CHORUS:                                    All that I have left are these
                   A9                          C#m7regrets, regrets
I have regrets, regrets                    Thinkin’ only of myself
F#m7     Em7         A7                    All that I have left are these
For my mistake in thinking                       regrets
only oDM7f myself                           C#m7(Repeat)
