Tom: Em
G
You've heard the story a thousand times
Bm
Boy meets girl and worlds collide
C
You forget everything that you are
Cm
When you make up your mind with your heart
G
Now, I might be strong but I'll admit
Bm
I thought you were the one, thought this was it
C
You were just playing along
Cm
And I guess I was wrong
[Chorus]
G
I wish I'd known before I knew ya
Bm
Wouldn't have fallen right into ya
Em
Would've skipped to the last chapter first
C Cm
Listened to every single word
G
But you didn't tell me you would leave me
Bm
Forgot to mention, it wouldn't be easy
Em D C
To get to the getting over you
Cm G Bm
I wish I'd known before I knew ya, knew ya
[Verse 2]
G
From the start until the end
Bm
Was it ever more than just pretend?
C
Cause you know that you'd let me down
Cm
Must've left that part out
[Chorus]
G
I wish I'd known before I knew ya
Bm
Wouldn't have fallen right into ya
Em
Would've skipped to the last chapter first
C Cm
Listened to every single word
G
But you didn't tell me you would leave me
Bm
Forgot to mention, it wouldn't be easy
Em D C
To get to the getting over you
Cm
I wish I'd known before
[Bridge]
Bm
I gave all I had, and got nothing back
Em
Boy, you don't know what you've done
C
If I would've known what I know now
Cm
I would have run, run, run
[Chorus]
G
I wish I'd known before I knew ya
Bm
Wouldn't have fallen right into ya
Em
Would've skipped to the last chapter first
C Cm
Listened to every single word
G
But you didn't tell me you would leave me
Bm
Forgot to mention, it wouldn't be easy
Em D C kool
To get to the getting over you
Cm G Bm
I wish I'd known before I knew ya, knew ya
[Outro]
C
I wish I'd known before I knew ya
