Prettiest Girl At The Dance

[Intro] E  F#m  A

E                                   F#m
Stopped in the ole tin angel for a cold one
A                                    E
You didn't even know that I was there
                                   F#m
Too little too late is such an old one
A                                  E
I'd be lying if I said I didn't care

But I'm sitting here tonight
F#m
Looking at my life
A                                        E
Wishin' I'd held you tighter when I had the chance

Guess I got what I deserve
         F#m
The truth is you always were
A                  E        F#m        A
The prettiest girl at the dance

              E             F#m
Don't know how long I expected
                  A                    E
I could keep you waltzing through my door
F#m
I sat out when I should have stepped in
         A                          E
And let you drift away across the floor

But I'm sitting here tonight
F#m
Looking at my life
                          A                  E
Wishin' I'd held you tighter when I had the chance

Guess I got what I deserve
                       F#m
The truth is you always were
          A                  E
The prettiest girl at the dance

          D      A           E
The prettiest girl at the dance
D                             A
You stayed with me step for step
Cm7                A
But I missed my chance
         F#m         A        E
With the prettiest girl at the dance

F#m                                     E
I tore down the good things that made us right
F#m          A                     E
I'm the one that's living with regret
F#m                                     E
Yeah it was me who turned out all the lights
F#m                                   E
You took the music with you when you left

E
But I'm sitting here tonight
F#m
Looking at my life
                          A                   E
Wishin' I'd held you tighter when I had the chance
E
Guess I got what I deserve
                      F#m
The truth is you always were
      A                      E
The prettiest girl at the dance

Guess I got what I deserve
                     F#m
The truth is I went and hurt
          A                 E
The prettiest girl at the dance
          F#m         A                   E
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
          F#m         A                   E
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
