It [G]coulda been the light in the [D]dark
It [Em]coulda been the blaze of [C]glory that keeps us [G]all from fallin a[D]part
It [Em]coulda been better
It [C]coulda been bigger
Every[G]thing I would [D]need
It coulda been [C]me[D]
I stand in the corner callin your name and your name and your name
Try tellin myself I was never to blame and to blame and to blame and to blame
Fall down to my knees I'm slippin away and away and away and away C
Break under the strain if only you stayed if you stayed if you stayed if you stayed
