Verse:
A minorAm C majorC
Last night I had the most vivid of dreams...
G+G
Emily came through my window and she hugged me.
FF
I felt every hair of my neck stand up.
G+G C majorC
Every inch of her cold to the touch.
A minorAm C majorC
She told me to miss the flight for her funeral...
G+G
Sobbing into my chest, begging me not to go.
FF G+G
I awoke teary-eyed but all alone.
Chorus:
FF
If I had listened to her,
G+G A minorAm
I'd surely still have my body and soul together.
FF
If I had listened to her...
G+G A minorAm
(It's alright, no don't cry, I missed you so)
FF
If I had listened to her,
G+G A minorAm
I would have lived out a life looking for answers.
FF G+G
If I had listened to her...
Verse:
A minorAm C majorC
I convinced myself that it was in my head.
G+G
Got dressed, my hair done, but still a mess.
FF
Felt her hand on my shoulder as I locked the door...
G+G C majorC
Felt her tug on my coat just as I got on board...
A minorAm C majorC
20,000 feet, felt the wing break.
G+G
Heard the captain's voice shake as he prayed.
FF
I just smiled, said: "Baby I'm on my way."
G+G C majorC
Now we don't have to wait.
Chorus:
FF
If I had listened to her,
G+G A minorAm
I'd surely still have my body and soul together.
FF
If I had listened to her...
G+G A minorAm
(It's alright, no don't cry, I missed you so)

If I had listened to her,
G+G A minorAm
we wouldn't be slow dancing forever.
FF G+G
Forever with her...
(End on G+G)
