(intro) B G#m

B
I had a one night stand with my best friend's baby sister
G#m
To this day he still won't speak to me
E
I pawned my grandpa's old guitar in college
F#
For a case of beer and a tank of gasoline

B
I took a swing at my old man one Christmas
G#m
I never dreamed that it would be his last
E
I wish mom had rung my neck when she caught me with those cigarettes
F#
Which reminds me, I'm down to my last pack

B                           G#m      (F#)
If I had a dime, for half the things I did
  E
That didn't make no sense at all,
                                F#
I'd be livin' a little higher on the hog
B                           D#m7
If only I'd a known, that later on down the road
G#m                    F#               E
I'd look back and not like what I see
    C#m                        F#           B
I'd a changed a lot of things, startin' with me

I called my brother everything I could think of
The night he wouldn't bail me out of jail
I lost a job most folks 'round here would die for
By layin' out all night and raisin' hell

I let a woman that I love slip through my fingers
Chalk another dumb move up to my foolish pride
I wasn't there standin' by the bed, when the preacher bowed his head
With the family, the day my grandma died

If I had a dime, for half the things I did
That didn't make no sense at all, I'd be livin' a little higher on the hall
If only I'd a known, that later on down the road
I'd look back and not like what I see
I'd a changed a lot of things, startin' with me

(solo) B G#m E F#

If only I'd a known, that later on down the road
I'd look back and not like what I see
I'd a changed a lot of things, startin' with me
G#m
Startin' with me
