[Verse 1] 
C
There she goes
Bb
Look at her
Gm7         Ebmaj7    Bb   Gm
I can’t wait for much longer
C
Who’s that guy
Bb
That she’s with
Gm7             Ebmaj7  Bb   Gm
He looks like me, only stronger
             Gm7              C
There’s a collection of gripes in my hat


[Verse 2] 
C
Pick a gripe
Bb
Any gripe
Gm7          Ebmaj7      Bb   Gm
Pick a friend, friends forever
C
Look at her
Bb
She’s my type
Gm7      Ebmaj7 Bb   Gm
Very cute, very clever
C                   C7                   F  Am/F#
But I've made up my mind, you, come over here.
          Gm7             C       F  F7
There’s a series of doubts to destroy


[Chorus] 
Bb                Bbm
We were laughing, we were waiting
F            A7       Dm  Faug/D
What else is there to do
Bb               Bbm
You had trouble, concentrating
F     A7      Dm  Faug/D
I had trouble too
Bb           Bbm
We’re so busy celebrating
Gm                    C  Caug
I forgot to celebrate you
F    Gm        Bb      C7      F
Your biggest regret is in your hands
     Gm       Bb     C7    Dm Faug/D Dm7 G7
I’ll never forget or understand


[Verse 3]
C
There’s a line
Bb
I could cross
Gm7        Ebmaj7    Bb   Gm
But instead, I stare at it
C
‘Cause what was mine
Bb
Had been lost
Gm7        Ebmaj7   Bb   Gm
I was fine, she had had it
C                   C7                   F  Am/F#
But I've made up my mind, you, come over here.
          Gm7          C       F  F7
There’s a collision of clouds overhead


[Chorus] 
Bb                Bbm
We were laughing, we were waiting
F            A7       Dm  Faug/D
What else is there to do
Bb               Bbm
You had trouble, concentrating
F     A7      Dm  Faug/D
I had trouble too
Bb           Bbm
We’re so busy celebrating
Gm                    C  Caug
I forgot to celebrate you
F    Gm        Bb      C7      F
Your biggest regret is in your hands
     Gm       Bb     C7    Dm Faug/D Dm7 G7
I’ll never forget or understand
