      Too much regret and shattered hope
          Bm                              D      Esus
Sent you slipping down that slope

Be a friend again

Esus             Bm                        Esus

             Bm                       D           Esus
What you've got's so important to me
          Bm                  Esus
Measuring your life versus theirs
               Bm              D
You'll always come out ahead
D                    Esus
In all the ways that really matter, so

Bm
Once in a while
D                D                A
What I wouldn't give to see you smile
Bm
I would I would I wouldn't
D                D                A
What I wouldn't give to see you smile
Bm
Once in a while
D                D                A
What I wouldn't give to see you smile
