Intro G
G
darling i..
know we talked about
D/F#
it one too many times..
how there was something

missing in our lives..

a little life..
G
so we tried..
it was more than just
D/F#
a twinkle in your eye..
but some things you

just don't get to decide..
Em
at least we tried..
C D Em
the first casualty of life is the plan..
C D Em
when i look back i'm not even sure that..

Chorus
G
somewhere
D
she's probably dancing with her blonde hair
C
falling like ribbons on her shoulders
Em D
just like we always saw..
G
bright eyes
D
spinning in circles in the sunlight
C
darling we tried but now it's over
Em
we had it all and then we lost..
D G
the girl that never was..
G
if i could say..
a million words
D/F#
to take away the pain..
what kills me is you
C
trying to take the blame
Em
you're not to blame..
G
i'll never say i told you so
but sad i've thought the words
D/F#
tried drowning you in happiness
i only make it worse
C
we never should've picked a name
cause now she has a face
Em
and now no matter what we do
no one will take her place
