Intro
A minorAm FF C majorC G+G x2


Verse 1
           A minorAm
Had every word prepared

         FF
Wasn't even scared

                 C majorC            G+G
Rehearsed the scene a million times and still felt no where

            A minorAm
You were just down the hall

         FF
Not knowing at all

          C majorC                G+G
What was about to happen when I laid it on the line

       A minorAm         FF
'Cause it's written on my face

       C majorC       G+G
Though you see it in my eyes

       A minorAm          FF
How do you tell someone you love

        C majorC
What's gonna hurt

       G+G
Don't wanna hurt


Chorus
 A minorAm          FF
This went on too long

             C majorC
I'm telling you what's wrong

               G+G
Tried and couldn't bring myself

(Shoulda been simple)
 A minorAm           FF
So many times I've tried

           C majorC
The time was never right

          G+G
It was so complicated

(Shoulda been simple)

 A minorAm     FF
Oh-oh oh-oh

(Shoulda been simple)
 C majorC        G+G
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh

(Shoulda been simple)
X2

Verse 2
            A minorAm
Let's not point the finger

           FF
This just kinda happened

              C majorC                 G+G
No matter how this ends today, I wanna leave here as friends

               A minorAm
It's not that I don't love you (Don't love you)

               FF
Don't think that I don't care (Don't care)

               C majorC               G+G
We were trying to fly a plane, the wings were just not there


       A minorAm        FF
And it's written on my face

       C majorC         G+G
And though you see it in my eyes

       A minorAm         FF
How do you tell someone you love

        C majorC
What's gonna hurt

        G+G
What's gonna hurt


 A minorAm          FF
This went on too long

             C majorC
I'm telling you what's wrong

               G+G
Tried and couldn't bring myself

(Shoulda been simple)
 A minorAm           FF
So many times I've tried

           C majorC
The time was never right

          G+G
It was so complicated

(Shoulda been simple)

Oh-oh oh-oh

(Shoulda been simple)

Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
