Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][D][G]
[C][G][C][D]
[G][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]I hear you just got marrie[C]d
Took a [G]month long honey[C]moon
A [G]new love smiles at the [C]wedding
You [D]cried when you kissed the [C]groom
[G]I got no invitat[C]ion
I guess the [G]mailman
didn't bring it to [C]me
But I [G]see the whole [D]thing in slow [Em]motion
Every [D]night as I try to [C]sleep

[Verse 2]
My buddy [G]John said
you looked real pret[C]ty
And you [G]acted like you were in [C]love
He said the [G]preacher [D]asked for ob[Em]jections
And he [D]thought about standing [C]up
I told [G]John he must've been [C]crazy
'Cause you were [G]just about to say I [C]do
He just [G]gave me a [D]wink
and said [Em]all he could think
Was it [D]could've been me with [C]you

[Chorus 1]
It could've been [D]me
Standing there [C]with you
It could've been [D]me
And my dreams [Em]com ing true
But those [Am]dreams move [D]on
If [G]you wait too [C]long
It [G]took me 'til [C]now to [D]see

[Interlude 1]
It could've been me
[G][C][G][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]I don't guess I ever tol[C]d you
That I went [G]out
and bought you a [C]ring
I even [G]carry it a[D]round in my [Em]pocket
[D]Waiting to say the right [C]thing
[G]I pulled it out the other [C]day
But the [G]diamond had lost it's [C]shine
Well, I [G]know how it [D]feels
'cause my [Em]eyes grow dim
When I [D]think you could've been [C]mine

[Chorus 2]
It could've been [D]me
Standing there [C]with you
It could've been [D]me
And my dreams [Em]com ing true
But those [Am]dreams move [D]on
If [G]you wait too [C]long
It [G]took me 'til [C]now to [D]see

[Interlude 2]
It could've been me
[G][C][G][C]

[Bridge 1]
I [Em]know I [A]called
just in [D]time a bit too [C]late
You know [Am]dreams move [D]on
if [G]you wait too [C]long
It [G]took me 'til [C]now to [D]see

[Chorus 3]
That it could've been [D]me
Standing there [C]with you
It could've been [D]me
And my dreams [Em]com ing true
But those [Am]dreams move [D]on
If [G]you wait too [C]long
It [G]took me 'til [C]now to [D]see

[Outro 1]
It could've been [G]me
(it could've been [C]me)
It could've been [G]me
(it could've been [C]me)
It could've been [G]me
(it could've been [C]me)
[G]Could've been me[C]
[Am][D]
[G][C]
