[INTRO]
B G#m
Sometimes, it's like I'm stumbling forward
G#m
Hustled forward
F#
Jostled from behind by time
B
Sometimes, it's like I'm being dragged
G#m
Yet always lagging
F#
Trying to keep in time with time
[PRE CHORUS]
G E
But if I could stop the clock for just one day
F# G#m
If I could freeze a moment for a moment
F#
Rest before the measure's over
E
Hold the beat for just one day
G
If I could wind it back and start afresh
A
Just a day to catch my breath
B
To make mistakes and set them right
G#m G
Delay the coming of the night
[VERSE]
B D#
If I had my time again
G#m
I would do it all the same
F#
You'll say, but that's insane
E
Wouldn't you want to make a couple of changes? (Bass notes - E B F# C#)
B D#
Regrets, I'd not even have a few
G#
If I could do this thing that you
C#
Say you can do.
E B
I've always dreamt of learning how to dance (Some days I go out without pants)
A
It's so exciting (I slept with ninety)
F#
A new beginning (Percent of women)
E
Every morning (In Punxsutawney)
B C#m F# G
To have the time to strive for more (Between eighteen and eighty-four)
F#m Bm
(And one dude when I was bored)
[CHORUS]
Bm G D F#
If I had my time again
Bm G
I'd take the path less trodden
D F#
Avoid the crap I trod in
G
Read a lot of books (I've stolen eighteen million bucks)
D A
And I would worry less about my nose (And I guess I'll do it again)
F# Bm
And I would be a lot more zen (When)
G D
And I would punch a lot of men (I had)
A Bm
If I had my time again
[VERSE]
B D#
If I had my time again
G#m
I would do it all the same
F#
You'll say, 'but that's ridiculous
E
Surely you'd wanna make a couple of fixes? (Bass notes - E B F# C#)
B D#
All those boxes left unchecked
G#
All those dreams you left neglected
C#
You'd go back and put it right!'
E B
I've always fancied learning how to climb (I once masturbated seven times)
C#m
I'd study math (in the bath)
F#
And search for meaning (in one evening)
E
And I'd run up hills (it wasn't fun but still)
B
And learn to paint (a man my age)
C#m F# G
Just to know I can (It's nice to know I can)
A Bm
(It's nice to know I can!)
[CHORUS]
Bm G D F#
If I had my time again
Bm G
I'd sample all the samples
D F#
Look at things from different angles
G A
I would not do it all the same
Bm
If I had my time again
[INSTRUMENTAL]
Bm G D A
Em G Em G
D G A
[CHORUS]
Bm G D F#
If I had my time again
Bm G
The things I'd handle better
D F#
I would send my unsent letters
[BRIDGE]
G
I've started seven hundred fights, and if you knew the endless nights (If I had my time back)
D
That I have wasted getting wasted contemplating different ways to suicide (I would write and I would write)
G
And I have tried every food and every drink (And I would add joy to other people's lives)
G
and every cheat and every choice a thousand times (and I would learn piano)
D A
And I daily eat about a dozen donuts and I don't know why
F#
and I don't know... why
Bm D G
And I would make a lot of friends
D
If I had my time
[CHORUS]
C#m A E G#
If I had my time again
C#m A E B
I'd open all the doors I've never looked behind before
A B
And oh, the things I'd taste, the things I'd try (I find the thing with these revolving rides)
A B
And the misery I could prevent (They're only fun 'cause you know they're gonna end)
F#m G#m A
And I would make a lot of friends
B E F#m
If I had my time again (again)
E A E
(But I've had it, but I've had my time again!)
End on E
