D Em
I stopped in the ol' Tin Angel for a cold one
G D
You didn't even know that I was there
D Em
Yeah, to little to late is such an old one
G D
I'd be lying if I said I didn't care
[Chorus]
D Em
Well I'm sitting here tonight, looking at my life
G D
Wishing I'd held you tighter when I had the chance
D Em
Guess I got what I deserved, truth is you always were
G D
The prettiest star at the dance
[Solo]
D Em G
D Em
I don't know how long I ex pecked
G D
I could keep you waltzing through my door
D Em
I sat out when I should have stepped in
G D
Let you drift away across the floor
[Chorus]
D Em
Well I'm sitting here tonight, looking at my life
G D
Wishing I'd held you tighter when I had the chance

Guess I got what I deserved, truth is you always were

I tore down the good things that made us right

Now I'm the one whose living with re greets

Em G
But you took the music when you left
[Chorus]
D Em
And I'm sitting here tonight, looking at my life
