Regrets

🎸 Verse:
Gm
I moved the glass to my lips, took a sip and sighed
F

Why does it feel like our lives on a Slip 'N Slide?
Eb
Kids, they add stress, work ain't workin' the best
                                          F
But that ain't the explanation why this love is a mess

   Gm
I guess priorities are prioritised over time
 F
And the only moments we spend are sleepin' side by side
 Eb
Mornin' breaks, same old nags and complaints
  Eb                                F                           Gm
I'm just tryna drink my coffee, if we engage, then we'll be late

 Gm
I push it down to avoid a situation
 F                                           Eb
But all it does is come out in the public places
 Eb
Can't be as open when they recognise our faces
   Eb                                  F
If they think it's heated, I guess that's an understatement

       Gm
But it used to be alive, be electric, burnin' bright
           F
There's a spark left in the embers, find some gasoline tonight
         Eb
Shut the world down, put the past behind
  Eb
See the mountain, got so far to climb
               F
Is all that's left for you and I



🎸 Chorus:
 Gm
Regrets
                               F
I'm not sayin' it's all in my head
                                  Eb
But I can't help thinkin' what's next
   Eb
When tomorrow is all we got left
    F          Gm
Confessing regrets
                                  F
Why's there distance when we're right here?
                         Eb
Is the anger just proof we care?
 Eb
A love in was is not fair
     F        Gm
Confessing regrets

🎸 Verse:
             Gm
You're too young to understand that daddy's comin' home
              F
Every time I leave the house, you think I'm forever gone
                       Eb
Guess it's from the hundred calls, goodnights on the telephone
  Eb                                          F
See this tour, I've gotta get it done, but why though?

                  Gm
Always said I'd pause work as soon as you came
                            F
Without structure, I just slipped into depression again
                          Eb
This is just one of the things that I could never explain
 Eb                                            F
Each and every day rollin' the dice, forever caught in the game

          Gm
Still uprootin' you both until the sickness started
  F
Missed appointments, ripped apart
                       Eb
Aimed to be the best dad here, but missed the mark
   Eb                                                F
Breakin' both you and your sister's heart, and your mother's too

          Gm
I see the wood for the trees 'cause there's no other truth
               F
I gotta stop puttin' work so far in front of you
                Eb
'Cause there is so much more love that a man can lose
   Eb
Tryna get back what I've lost, sittin' here and all I've got is



🎸 Chorus:
   Gm
Regrets
                               F

But I can't help thinkin' what's next

When tomorrow is all we got left
    F          Gm
Confessing regrets
                                  F

                         Eb
Is the anger just proof we care?

Confessing regrets

🎸 Verse:
    Gm
Three generations of women in my life, they keep me stood
              F
They know that I don't keep in touch with your mum as much as I should
              Eb
I know that you got your battles, the same as me
Eb                                        F
DNA in us, we feel so much shame in us, what we offer ain't enough

  Gm
These thoughts get dangerous, one way that the pain can stop
 F
Hope and pray that both my little girls, they ain't the same as us
  Eb
Missed out on so much, I really need to make it up
                               F
Take you on a plane and just, you know

                 Gm
I wish there was more one on one, and you didn't share your son
            F
I wish you didn't have to move away, but that sorta thing comes
            Eb
When your identity shifts from bein' mum and Imogen
 Eb                                         F
To havin' my stage name in front when you talk to anyone

    Gm
My mind's all in a rut, I'm unsure if it will stop
         F
If you reach out and think that I'm ignorin' you, I'm not
         Eb
I'm just lost in my head, wish I could pause the world and then
                                      F
I'll talk it out with you and say, "Mum, I'm here again with"

🎸 Chorus:
   Gm
Regrets
                               F
I'm not sayin' it's all in my head
                                  Eb
But I can't help thinkin' what's next
   Eb
When tomorrow is all we got left
    F          Gm
Confessing regrets
                                  F
Why's there distance when we're right here?
                         Eb
Is the anger just proof we care?
