You Shouldve Been There

Capo 1



    Am                          C

You should've been there as the sun went down

G               F         E

Colors ran all across the ground

      Am                  C

And a thousand stars were spinning all around

G                F

Do you care? You should've been there



Am                      C

I saved you place right by my side

    G                   F     E

And waited there in the candlelight

Am                    C                  

But the only friend I had in sight

G                       F

Was an empty chair, you should've been there



C                       F

Ran into some people we used to know

C                           G

They were going somewhere I didn't want to go

     F                          G          Am

So I kept on waiting for just a little bit more

G              F          G              Am

Not getting anywhere, you should've been there



C                                F

Then I thought I saw you walking by into town

C                     G

Into the crowd I went chasing you down

       F                    G    Am

When I grabbed your arm she spun around

  G        F           G              Am

A stranger glared, you should've been there



          Am

Yeah, you should've been there



    Am                                   C

You should've been there, there's always so much to see

G                 F         E

In this old town, don't you agree?

Am                      C

But then again, I never said I'd be

G             F

Anywhere, you should've been there



Am                      C

I saved you place right by my side

    G                   F     E

And waited there in the candlelight

Am                    C                  

But the only friend I had in sight

G                       F

Was an empty chair, you should've been there



C                       F

Ran into some people we used to know

C                           G

They were going somewhere I didn't want to go

     F                          G          Am

So I kept on waiting for just a little bit more

G              F          G              Am

Not getting anywhere, you should've been there



C                                F

Then I thought I saw you walking by into town

C                     G

Into the crowd I went chasing you down

       F                    G    Am

When I grabbed your arm she spun around

  G        F           G              Am

A stranger glared, you should've been there



[Solo]



          C                           F

Well, you should've been there as the sun went down

C               G

Colors ran all across the ground

      F                   G             Am

And a thousand stars were spinning all around

G      F         G              Am

Do you care? You should've been there



          C                                    F

Yeah, you should've been there, there's always so much to see

C                    G

This is a wild town, don't you agree?

F                         G        Am

Then again, girl, I never said I'd be

G  F          G              Am

Anywhere, you should've been there



        Am

Oh, you should've been there
