Key:
For the intro you can either play --- chord progression with one strum or
play --- traid progression
Life should be like a game of cards
You make a mistake
Shuffle the deck and start over
It should be just like drivin in your car
Get lost and your navigation system
Gets you closer
But there ain't no handbook
You're on your own
Got no instructions
When it comes to love
Cuz once you do something
Can't be undone
Wish I could take back
Letting you go
If I knew then
What I know now
I wouldn't have said
I don't need you around
Alone in this mess
Silence is so loud
So I would treat you the best
Baby if I knew then
What I know now (What I know now)
What I know now (What I know now)
What I know now (What I know now)
Yeah I would treat you the best
Baby if I knew then
(stop strumming and immediately palm mute the moment they say now)
What I know now
Wish I get remote controls
Then I just rewind into
(alternatively, you can palm mute after playin and not play atall)
The time it was better
It should have a restart button
So, I could travel right back
To the day that I met her
