[Intro]
A E/Ab G D
[Verse 1]
A E/Ab
Standin' on the edge of our old corner on Broadway
G D
I passed a couple kids and, oh, it felt like yesterday
A E/Ab
That we were holding hands and walkin' right down 15th Street
G D
The wind was in my hair and you had that red flush in your cheek, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
D F#m E
And I know you find it funny, ooh
D
But I can't seem to let it go
D F#m E
I keep wishin' there was something to do
D
Oh, don't you?
[Chorus]
D A/C#
But if now was then, I would get out of my head
E D
I would touch your chest, I would break the bed
D A/C#
I would say the things that I never said
E D
Oh, the things I'd do, oh, if now was then
D A/C#
But you can't take it back
E D
But you can't take it back
D
[Verse 2]
A E/Ab
When Anna threw that party, I remember seeing you
G D
It'd been a couple years and we locked eyes across the room
A E/Ab
You were with your new girl, oh, and I had brought a guy
G D
That I knew back in high school, but was so empty inside, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
D F#m E
And I know you find it funny, ooh
D
But I can't seem to let it go
D F#m E
I keep wishin' there was something to do
D
Oh, don't you?
[Chorus]
D A/C#
'Cause if now was then, I would get out of my head
E D
I would touch your chest, I would break the bed
D A/C#
I would say the things that I never said
E D
Oh, the things I'd do, oh, if now was then
D A/C#
But you can't take it back
E D
But you can't take it back
D A/C#
Ooh, you can't take it back
E D
No, you can't take it back
[Outro]
D
I'd take it back, but I can't, I'm sorry
A/C#
I know it hurts, but you shouldn't worry
E
I'd take it back, but I can't, I'm sorry
D
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
D
I'd take it back, but I can't, I'm sorry
A/C#
I know it hurts, but you shouldn't worry
E
I'd take it back, but I can't, I'm sorry
D
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
