I Should Have Married You

Capo: 3rd fret

[Verse 1]
G                        D
We were walkin' down the boardwalk
                          Em
Watchin' stars out on the ocean
                 Bm
We were drunk on margaritas
                          C
And that might've been my moment
                      D
But we stood there in silence
                      G
And watched the waves crash
 
 
[Verse 2]
                   D
Vacation with your family
                       Em
After midnight, in the kitchen
                        Bm
I was hangin' with your dad
                         C
I coulda asked him but I didn't
                          D
I don't know why, I guess I thought I had more time
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
            G                        D
If I hadn't been so young and stupid
                Em                 Bm
Yeah, I let somebody beat me to it
                    C
Don't know what you got until you lose it
        D
Guess I blew it, baby
D
I should have married you
 
 
[Chorus]
C
That's just the way it goes
D
I should've seen it through
G
I should've let you know
Em
I should've said, "I do"
C                         D
Back when I still had the chance, yeah
                         N.C.
I should have married you
 
 
[Verse 3]
G                        D
Maybe I thought I needed freedom
                         Em
Maybe it's all about the timing
                        Bm
Maybe I wouldn't let my ego
                    C
Let somebody tie me down
                              D
Aw, but I can't blame you for not waitin' around
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
            G                                           D
(If I hadn't been so young and stupid 
(I wish I would've known, wish I would've known))
                Em                      Bm
Yeah, I let somebody beat me to it (Whoa, yeah)
                    C
Don't know what you got until you lose it
        D
Guess I blew it, baby
D
I should have married you
 
 
[Chorus]
C
That's just the way it goes (Way it goes)
