If I Knew Then

Am                                    F
Life should be like a game of cards
               Am
You make a mistake
Em
Shuffle the deck and start over
Am                                      F
It should be just like drivin in your car
                    Am
Get lost and your navigation system
                  Em
Gets you closer

[Bridge]
      Am
But there ain't no handbook
F
You're on your own
Am
Got no instructions
Em
When it comes to love
Am
Cuz once you do something
F
Can't be undone
Am
Wish I could take back
Em
Letting you go

[Chorus]
                 Am
If I knew then
                  F
What I know now
                     Am
I wouldn't have said
                        Em
I don't need you around
                Am
Alone in this mess


                 F
Silence is so loud
                               Am
So I would treat you the best
        Em
Baby if I knew then
Am                                      F       
What I know now (What I know now)
Am                                       Em     
What I know now (What I know now)
Am                                      F       
What I know now (What I know now)
                       Am
Yeah I would treat you the best
        Em
Baby if I knew then
                (stop strumming and immediately palm mute the moment they say now)
What I know now

[Verse 2]

Am                         F
Wish I get remote controls
                Am
Then I just rewind into
                     Em(alternatively, you can palm mute after playin Am and not play Em atall)
The time it was better
            Am
It should have a restart button
F                            Am
So, I could travel right back
                        Em(mute out immediately after one strum at her)
To the day that I met her
