[Intro]
B  Bm  A
B  Bm  A  E


[Verse]
F#m               A                       Bm
Same bed, but it feels just a little bit bigger now
E                                   A              C#m
Our song on the radio, but it don't sound the same
F#m                     A                            Bm
When our friends talk about you all it does is just tear me down
E                                     A
Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name


[Pre-Chorus]
   C#m                   F#m              C#m
It all just sounds like ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh
G                            A
Mmm too young, too dumb to realize


[Chorus]
     E\                     D      E              A
That I should've bought you flowers and held your hand
                        D    E           A
Shoulda gave you all my hours when I had the chance
                  D                   E                F#m
Take you to every party cause all you wanted to do was dance
B             D                  Dm                   A   D  A  C#m
Now my baby's dancing, but she's dancing with another man


[Verse]
F#m           A                    Bm
My pride, my ego, my needs and my selfish ways
E                                           A           C#m
Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life
         F#m     A                         Bm
Now I'll never, never get to clean up the mess I made ooh
E                                    A
And that haunts me every time I close my eyes


[Pre-Chorus]
   C#m                   F#m              C#m
It all just sounds like ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh
G                            A
Mmm too young, too dumb to realize


[Chorus]
     E\                     D      E              A
That I should've bought you flowers and held your hand
                        D    E           A
Shoulda gave you all my hours when I had the chance
                  D                   E                F#m
Take you to every party cause all you wanted to do was dance
B             D                  Dm                   A
Now my baby's dancing, but she's dancing with another man


[Bridge]
            D                 E
Although it hurts I'll be the first
                  A  E  F#m  C#m
to say that I was wrong
      B
Oh, I know I'm probably much too late
           Bm
To try and apologize for my mistakes
           E
But I just want you to know


[Chorus]
                   D      E                      A
I hope he buys you flowers, I hope he holds your hand
                 D    E            A
Give you all his hours when he has the chance
                  D             E                     F#m
Take you to every party cause I remember how much you love to dance
B                   D             Dm               A
Do all the things I should've done when I was your man
B                   D             Dm               A~
Do all the things I should've done when I was your man
