[Verse 1:]

Am                     C                            Dm
Same bed, but it feels just a little bit bigger now
G                        C                         Em
Our song on the radio, but it don't sound the same
Am                              C                                       Dm
When our friends talk about you all it does is just tear me down
G                                     C
Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name

[Pre-chorus:]
    Em                        Am                    Em
It all just sounds like ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh
Bb                                            C
Mmm too young, too dumb to realize


[Chorus]
        G                                     F      G                       C
That you should've bought me flowers and held my hand
G                                     F    G                               C
Shoulda gave me all your hours when you had the chance
G                         F                        G                         Am
Take me to every party cause all I wanted to do was dance
D                         F                       Fm                             C
         Em
Now baby you're dancing, but I'm dancing with another man


[Verse 2]

Am                      C                                     Dm
Your pride, your ego, your needs and your selfish ways
G                               C                    Em
Caused a nice young love like me to walk out your life
             Am     C                                    Dm
Now I'll never, never get to clean up the mess we made ooh
G                                 C
And that haunts me every time I close my eyes


[Pre-Chorus]
Em                             Am                   Em
It all just sounds like ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh
Bb                                             C
Mmm too young, too dumb to realize


[Chorus]
        G                                      F      G                     C
That you should've bought me flowers and held my hand
G                                      F    G                      C
Shoulda gave me all your hours when you had the chance
G                           F                          G                         Am
Take me to all the parties cause all I wanted to do was dance
D                         F                       Fm                              C
Now baby you're dancing, but I'm dancing with another man


[Bridge]

                  F                       G                              C G Am Em
Although it hurts I'll be the first to say that I was wrong
         D
Oh, I know I'm probably much too late
                 Dm
To try and apologize for your mistakes
               G
But I just want you to know


[Chorus:]

                         F      G                       C
Oh, he buys me flowers, he holds my hand
      G                      F    G                     C
He gives me all his hours 'cause he has the chance
G                           F                         G                               Am
Takes me to every party cause he remembers how much I love to dance
D                                    F                   Fm                            C
'Cause all the things you should've done when you were my man
D                                    F                   Fm                            C
