Well, early this morning it dawned on me
                                 E
The kind of man she needed me to be
E
She made a list and laid it there beside me on the bed
           D                                       E
Now what I should'a done keep's runnin' through my head


A
Oh, I should'a done this and I should'a done that
A
I should'a been there, then she'd a never left
                E                                     A
I should'a been hangin' on every word she ever had to say

It's a little too late, she's a little too gone

She's a little too right, I'm a little too wrong
          E                                           A
Now would be the time to change but it's a little too late


A
Last night I came home at a quarter till three
                                     E
And to my surprise she wasn't mad at me

I thought she finally realized not to worry I'd be home
       D                             E
Then I realized this mornin' she was gone



A
Oh, I should'a done this and I should'a done that
A
I should'a been there, then she'd a never left
                E                                     A
I should'a been hangin' on every word she ever had to say

It's a little too late, she's a little too gone

She's a little too right, I'm a little too wrong
          E                                           A
Now would be the time to change but it's a little too late
