[Intro]
Dm F  C  Dm F  C  C/B
 -  -  -  -  -  - 
[Verse 1]
Am       C                              Dm
Same bed but it feels just a little bit bigger now
G               G7                 C              C/B
Our song on the radio but it don't sound the same
Am               C                                   Dm
When our friends talk about you, all it does is just tear me down
G                                     C
Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name
[Chorus]
C/B                     Am        Em
It all just sounds like oooooh
        Bb                     C
Hmmm... Too young, too dumb to realize
G                           F        G
That I should've bought you flowers
              C
And held your hand
                          F
Should've gave you all my hours
G               C
When I had the chance
                  F
Take you to every party
              G                 Am
Cause all you wanted to do was dance
D/F#             F
Now my baby's dancing
          Fm                   C
But she's dancing with another man
[Instrumental]
C  F  C  C/B
 -  -  - 
[Verse 2]
Am        C                        Dm
My pride, my ego, my needs, and my selfish ways
G                    G7                C                C/B
Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life
      Am     C                         Dm
Now I never, never get to clean up the mess I made, ohhhhhhh
G                                   C
And it haunts me every time I close my eyes
[Chorus]
C/B                     Am        Em
It all just sounds like oooooh
        Bb                     C
Hmmm... Too young, too dumb to realize
G                           F        G
That I should've bought you flowers
              C
And held your hand
                          F
Should've gave you all my hours
G               C
When I had the chance
                  F
Take you to every party
              G                Am
Cause all you wanted to do was dance
D/F#                F
Now my baby's dancing
          Fm                   C
But she's dancing with another man
[Bridge]
            F
Although it hurts
            G                       C  C/B  Am
I'll be the first to say that I was wrong
Am/G  D/F#
oh, I know I'm probably much too late
            Dm
To try and apologize for my mistakes
           G
But I just want you to know
[Chorus]
                   F
I hope he buys you flowers
          G           C
I hope he holds your hand
                  F
Gives you all his hours
G                C
When he has the chance
C                 F
Take you to every party
         G                              Am
Cause I remember how much you loved to dance
D/F#                F         Fm
Do all the things I should've done
                C
When I was your man
D/F#                F         Fm
Do all the things I should've done
                C
When I was your man!
