[INTRO]
Em C
[VERSE]
B7I was Emhot
I Gwent to parties a lot Y'know?
I was Amdriving Lamborghinis
BbmSipping super-dry martinis
In the tiniest Cbikinis on a yachtB7  
[VERSE]
But I was deEmpressed
Also cGompletely obsessed
An unAmhappy beauty queen
A#mWho dreamed to be Miss Argentina
I had B7such low self-esteem
I was a mess
So I Amgave it all up for the netherworld
I've been Emhere forever, girl
DIf I was more clever, girl
GI would've stuck it out
B7Knowing what life's about
[BRIDGE]
AmPain and joy and suffering
GFailing but recovering
F#mI'll tell you another thing
BmEveryone here is Calone
So Bm7if you are breathing
B7Go home!
[CHORUS]
EmIf I knew then
What B7I know now
I would have looked within and let love in someEmhow
EmIf I only knew
The Amtruth back Emthen
I B7wouldn't have had my little "accident"
[INTRO]
Em E B7
[VERSE]
B7Don't be Emblind
GYou left your whole life behind
AmSee a shrink, Call a priest
BbmAsk the recently deceased
Death is Cfinal and you cannot press rewinB7d
AmDon't jump when the light is red
EmToasters should be used for bread
DNever smoke cigars in bed
GNietzsche was right, y'know, to B7live is to suffer, bro
AmDon't cheat on the one you wed
GNever whip a thoroughbred
B7Angry pygmys shrunk his head
B7Why did it take death to Csee
B7Happiness was up to me?
[CHORUS]
EmIf I knew then
What I know B7now
I would've laughed and danced
And lanced every sacred Emcow
I thought I knew
But I was Amwrong
'Cause B7life is short
But death is super Emlong
I exploded!
[INSTRUMENTAL]
A#7 D#m7
G#m A#m
B7 E
B C7
[CHORUS]
If FmI knew then (If I knew)
What C7I know now
C7I would've crossed every line
And drank all the wine
BFmefore my final bow
FIf I knew (If I knew)
The things that A#mnow I Cknow
C7I would ride the highs and cherish the lows
Going, it's a quick trick 'round the rodeo
So Cbefore they lower the curtain, be certain to enjoy the C7show
That's what I Fmknow!
Life is short but death is long
D#Here, one minute then it's gone
C#Thought I knew but I was wrong
If I only knew what I Fknow Fmnow!
