I Would Be Sad

Capo 1

(start on G)

Chorus:

Em C G

I would be sad because you left me all alone (mmmm)

Em C G

I would be sad because the lies that you had told [me] (mmmm)

Em C D G

I would be sad because I got left by a girl that I adore

Em C G

I would be sad [because/for all] the love I had before

G Em

I meant what I said when I said I would settle down with you

C D

although I know its not something that you were asking me to do

G Em

And I know we are young, but we won’t always be, so marry me

C D

Lets not be that predictable young couple changing, moving on

G Em

But I can tell by watching you that there's no chance of pushing through

C D

the odds are so against us, you know, most young love it ends like this...

(Chorus)

G Em

I meant what I said when I said I... would...

C D G

rearrange my plans and change for you...

...

G Em

You know me I’ve always been the kind with easy confidence

C D

Confident enough to honest-ly believe that nothing /out\ there’s

G Em

stopping me, especially not someone who's not loving me

C D

Now listen here I told you I could live on without loving you...

C D

I was bluffing then but it seems \that just might have been the truth/

G Em

Well my dad told me, “One day, son, this girl will think of what she’s done

C D

And hurting you will be the first of many more regrets to come”

G Em

And he said, “If she doesn't call then its her fault and its her loss”

C D

I say, “It’s not that simple, see, but then again it just may be...”

(Chorus)

Em C G

I would be sad for the love I had before
