Capo 1
[A]Things get in the way, the [Em7]rush of everyday
The o[D]rdinary stuff we all get [A]into
[A]Wouldn't it be sad, if [Em7]all you ever had
Was a g[D]ranite epitaph that said "I m[A]eant to"
So a[D]ny pretty woman I didn't take the time to kiss
Any crazy t[G]hing I didn't do, I meant to
[D]Any dirty liar I didn't stare right in the eye
And make him t[G]ell the naked truth, I meant to
I'm a[A]lways on the run, things get [Em7]lost some things get done
But [A]if I didn't have all the fun I me[G]ant to, I meant to
And [D]if I never came out and said to e[A]ach and everyone I love
How m[G]uch I really do.[A]...[G/A]... I m[D]eant to
[A]Maybe this one chance is [Em7]all we really have
And m[D]aybe all you got is what you g[A]et to
[A]Well I ain't gonna cry, I'll [Em7]give it my best try
Then k[D]iss the world goodbye and say I m[A]eant to
CHORUS
[A] [G/A] I m[D]eant to
[A] [G/A] I m[D]eant to
Note
If you want just play a regular G where the G/A is
