       D            D7           G
If you hurt me, you won't be the first or the last

         A       A7      D    A
in a lifetime of many mistakes.

      D             D7       G
But I won't spend tomorrow regretting the past for 

    A            A7       D   D7
the chances that I didn't take.
CHORUS:
      G          A             D    D7        G
Cause I'll never know til it's over....if I'm right 

       A            D
or I'm wrong loving you.

        G         A         D              G
But I'd rather be sorry for something I've done, than 

    D              A        D   A
for something that I didn't do.
#2.
         D             D7      G                 A
When you touch me it's easy to make me believe tomorrow 

      A7        D   A
won't take you away.

        D          D7     G                          A
But I'd gamble whatever tomorrow might bring for the love 

         A7       D   D7
that I'm living today.
CHORUS:
    G          A             D    D7        G
And I'll never know til it's over....if I'm right 

       A            D
or I'm wrong loving you.

        G         A         D              G
But I'd rather be sorry for something I've done, than 

    D              A        D   A
for something that I didn't do.
#3.
       D            D7         G                      A
I know someday that I may wake up all alone, when the love

    A7            D    A
I believed in has died.

       D             D7          G
But at least I won't wonder what I might have won, from the

A               A7            D  D7
lifetime that I watched going by. 
CHORUS:
      G          A             D    D7        G
Cause I'll never know til it's over....if I'm right 

       A            D
or I'm wrong loving you.

        G         A         D              G
But I'd rather be sorry for something I've done, than 

    D              A        D   
for something that I didn't do.
OUTRO:
         G         A         D              G
Yes, I'd rather be sorry for something I've done than for 

D              A        G  D
something that I didn't do.
