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