#1.
       D            D7           G
If you hurt me, you won't be the first or the last
         A       A7      D    A
in a lifetime of many mistakes.
      D             D7       G
But I won't spend tomorrow regretting the past for
    A            A7       D   D7
the chances that I didn't take.

CHORUS:
      G          A             D    D7        G
Cause I'll never know til it's over....if I'm right
       A            D
or I'm wrong loving you.
        G         A         D              G
But I'd rather be sorry for something I've done, than
    D              A        D   A
for something that I didn't do.

#2.
         D             D7      G                 A
When you touch me it's easy to make me believe tomorrow
      A7        D   A
won't take you away.
        D          D7     G                          A
But I'd gamble whatever tomorrow might bring for the love
         A7       D   D7
that I'm living today.

CHORUS:
    G          A             D    D7        G
And I'll never know til it's over....if I'm right
       A            D
or I'm wrong loving you.
        G         A         D              G
But I'd rather be sorry for something I've done, than
    D              A        D   A
for something that I didn't do.

#3.
       D            D7         G                      A
I know someday that I may wake up all alone, when the love
    A7            D    A
I believed in has died.
       D             D7          G
But at least I won't wonder what I might have won, from the
A               A7            D  D7
lifetime that I watched going by.

CHORUS:
      G          A             D    D7        G
Cause I'll never know til it's over....if I'm right
       A            D
or I'm wrong loving you.
        G         A         D              G
But I'd rather be sorry for something I've done, than
    D              A        D
for something that I didn't do.

OUTRO:
         G         A         D              G
Yes, I'd rather be sorry for something I've done than for
D              A        G  D
something that I didn't do.
