[Verse 1]
            Ab                
There's so many things we left 
                              Eb/G
undone, so much we didn't do
       Fm
Still got that shirt you let me 
borrow that I never returned to you
     Db
So many things I should've done, but
 I always got off track
   Eb
Here's the money that I owe you, 
that you never asked for back
            Ab                     
'Cause you never asked for 
                      Eb/G
anything, not anything at all
        Fm
Except once in a while you'd ask if 
I could give you a call
       Db
How I wish that I had listened then,
 how I wish I gave a damn
       Eb
How I wish that I could call you now
 just to tell you how I am

[Chorus]
    Ab                       Eb/G
If only I had found the time
    Fm
If only I had even tried
    Db
If only I had done enough
   Eb
Having to let you go wouldn't have 
to hurt so much

[Verse 2]
  Ab                            
Since the day you left us things 
                            Eb/G
just haven't been the same
     Fm
My family hasn't spoken since the 
day you went away
     Db
If only you could see us now I know 
you'd be ashamed
          Eb
Can you send me a sign from heaven 
and help us change our ways?

[Chorus]
    Ab                       Eb/G
If only I had found the time
    Fm
If only I had even tried
    Db
If only I had done enough
   Eb
Having to let you go wouldn't have 
to hurt so much

[Verse 3]
        Ab                         
I can hear your voice in 
                     Eb/G
everything, in every single song
          Fm
And it's tough holding my head up 
high, still knowing that you're gone
        Db
These times are so confusing, but I 
know that in the end
          Eb
We will spread our wings and fly 
away the day we meet again
  Db            Eb
Don't leave, I need you now

[Chorus]
    Ab                       Eb/G
If only I had found the time
    Fm
If only I had even tried
    Db
If only I had done enough
   Eb
Having to let you go wouldn't have 
to hurt so much

I need you now
    Ab                       Eb/G
If only I had found the time
    Fm
If only I had even tried
    Db
If only I had done enough
   Eb
Having to let you go wouldn't have 
to hurt so much
