Capo on 2

[INTRO]
[D] [D] [Em] [G] x 2

I stopped [D]in the ol' Tin Angel for a [Em]cold one
You [G]didn't even know that I was [D]there
Yeah, to [D]little to late is such an [Em]old one
I'd be [G]lying if I said I didn't [D]care

[CHORUS]
Well I'm [D]sitting here tonight, [Em]looking at my life
Wishing I'd [G]held you tighter when I had the [D]chance
Guess I [D]got what I deserved, truth [Em]is you always were
The [G]prettiest star at the [D]dance

[SOLO]
[D] [Em] [G]

I [D]don't know how long I ex [Em]pecked
[G]I could keep you waltzing through my [D]door
[D]I sat out when I should have [Em]stepped in
[G]Let you drift away across the [D]floor

[CHORUS]
Well I'm [D]sitting here tonight, [Em]looking at my life
Wishing I'd [G]held you tighter when I had the [D]chance
Guess I [D]got what I deserved, truth [Em]is you always were
The [G]prettiest star at the [D]dance

[BRIDGE]
[Em]I tore down the good things that [D]made us right
[Em]Now I'm the one whose [G]living with re [D]greets
[Em]Yeah, it was me that turned out [D]all the lights
[Em]But you took the music when you [G]left

[CHORUS]
And I'm [D]sitting here tonight, [Em]looking at my life
Wishing I'd [G]held you tighter when I had the [D]chance
Guess I [D]got what I deserved, truth [Em]is you always were
The [G]prettiest girl at the [D]dance

The [G]prettiest girl at the [D]dance
