A Lot Of Things Different

Intro: D A

D
I'd spend a lot more time out in the pouring rain
                     A
Without and umbrella
                 F#m G D
Coverin' my head

And I'd stood up to that bully when he pushed
                    A
And called me names
                      Bm G D
But I was too afraid

And I'd gone on and seen Elvis
                           A
That night he came to town
                       F#m G D
Momma said I couldn't

And I'd gone skinny dipping with Jenny Carson
                            A
That time she dared me to
             F#m
But I didn't
Bm G             A                       D
Oh I, I'd done a lot of things different




And I wish I'd spent more time with my dad
                  A
When he was alive
                            F#m G D
Now I don't have the chance

And I wish I had told my brother how much I loved him
                          A
Before he went off to war
                          Bm G D
But I just shook his hand

And I wish I had gone to church on Sunday morning
                             A
When my grandma begged me to
                         F#m G D
But I was scared of God

And I wish I would've listened when they said
                                  A
Boy, you're gonna wish you hadn't
                F#m
But I wouldn't
Bm G             A                      D
Oh I, I'd done a lot of things different

(Chorus:)

G
People say they wouldn't change a thing
               D
Even if they could
        G       A
Oh, but I would



D
There was this red dress she wanted one time
                           A
So bad she could taste it
                                    F#m G D
I should've bought it, but I didn't

She wanted to paint our house yellow
                                  A
And trim it with blues and greens
                                                  Bm G D
I wouldn't let her, it wouldn't have hurt nothin'
                                                 A
And she loved to be kissed and held and touched
                                      F#m G D
But I didn't do it, not nearly enough

And if I'd known that dance was gonna be our last dance
                                  A
I would've asked the band to play
                  F#m
On and on, on and on
Bm G              A               D
Oh I, I'd done a lot of things different

(Chorus:)

G                                   A
People say they wouldn't change a thing
               D
Even if they could
        G
Oh, but I would


Bm G              A              D        F#m
Oh I, I'd done a lot of things different
Bm G              A
Oh I, I'd done a lot of things... I think we'd all do a lot things different
