Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I w[Gsus2]ake up an[D]d wonder how
[G]everything went [Bm]wrong.
[A]Am I the one [G]to blame?
I [D]gave up and left you for a
[G]nowhere-bound train.
[Bm]train.
Now that [A]train has come and [G]gone.
[Em]I close my eyes and see you
ly[Bm]ing in my bed.
And I'm [D]still [A]dreaming of that [G]day.

[Verse 2]
[E]What could have been love
Should have been the [F#m]only thing
that was [Bsus4]ever meant to be.
[E]Didn't know, couldn't see what
was [A]right in front of [B]me.[Bsus4]
[E]And now that I'm alone,
all I have is [F#m]emptiness that comes [Bsus4]from being free.
[C#m]What could have been
[Bsus4]love will never b[B]e.[F#m]

[Verse 3]
An [D]old friend told me that you
[G]found somebody new.
[Bm]Oh, you're f[A]i nally moving o[G]n.
You [D]think that I'd be over you
[G]after all these years.
[Bm]Yeah, but [A]time has proved
[E]me wrong.
'Cause I'm still [G]holdin' on.

[Verse 4]
[E]What could have been love
Should have been the [F#m]only thing
that was [Bsus4]ever meant to be.
[E]Didn't know, couldn't see what was rig[A]ht
in front [B]of me.
[E](What could have been love)
And now that I'm [G#m]alone all I have [F#m]is emptiness
that comes [Bsus4]from being [B]free.
[C#m]What could have been love w[B]ill never be.[A]

[Verse 5]
[F#m]We've gone our separate ways.
[C#m]Say goodbye to another day
[F#m]I still wonder where you are.
Are you [C#m]too far from turning back?
[D]You were slipping through my
hands and I [Bm]didn't [B]understand.

[Verse 6]
[E]What could have been lov[G#m]e
Should have been the [F#m]only thing
that was [Bsus4]ever meant to be.
[E]Didn't know, couldn't see what
was [A]right in front of [B]me.
(What could [E]have been love)
And now that I'm [G#m]alone,
all I have [F#m]is emptiness that comes [Bsus4]from being [B]free.
[C#m]What could have been love[B]
will nev[Bsus4]er be.[A]
What could have been [Bsus4]love will never be.
[B]What could have been

[Verse 7]
[E]love[G#m][A]
What could [E]have been [G#m]love[A]
What [Bsus4]could have been lov[E]e
What could have been
What [A]could have been
What [Bsus4]could hav[E]e bee[G#m]n love[A]
