Verse 1
                     Am     
Had every word prepared

                 F    
Wasn't even scared

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

                        Am      
You were just down the hall

                 F    
Not knowing at all

                    C                               G    
What was about to happen when I laid it on the line
Am                 F    
'Cause it's written on my face

             C              G     
Though you see it in my eyes

             Am                   F    
How do you tell someone you love

               C     
What's gonna hurt

              G     
Don't wanna hurt



Chorus
 Am                    F    
This went on too long

                          C     
I'm telling you what's wrong

                              G    
Tried and couldn't bring myself

(Shoulda been simple)
 Am                     F      
So many times I've tried

                     C      
The time was never right

                    G    
It was so complicated

(Shoulda been simple)

 Am          F    
Oh-oh oh-oh

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

Verse 2
                       Am      
Let's not point the finger

                      F     
This just kinda happened

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

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

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

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



             Am                F  
And it's written on my face

             C                  G     
And though you see it in my eyes

             Am                  F     
How do you tell someone you love

               C     
What's gonna hurt

               G     
What's gonna hurt


 Am                    F    
This went on too long

                          C     
I'm telling you what's wrong

                              G    
Tried and couldn't bring myself

(Shoulda been simple)
 Am                     F      
So many times I've tried

                     C      
The time was never right

                    G    
It was so complicated

(Shoulda been simple)

 Am          F    
Oh-oh oh-oh

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

 A                   Em                              Cadd9        
Remember the day that we said that we wouldn't change

       D      
We changed

 A                      Em                        Cadd9      
'Cause nothing's the same anymore since that day

       D    
That day


 A                                      Em     
Shoulda been, shoulda been, shoulda been

(shoulda been, shoulda been)
