                 You Should Have Waited - Taking Back Sunday
E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------||

Tuning: 1/2 Step Down

This was the demo and only recorded version of a song TBS made before John and Shaun
leaving the band back in 2003. Originally the song was much faster and different. 
It was first known as "Im Not Gay (I Just Wish I Was)" then called "Baby Your Beard Hurts".
When John and Shaun reunited with the band in 2010, they reworked this song and titled it 
"Why Not A Sexy Pirate?" but settled with "You Should Have Waited" when they tracked it
for the self titled album.
