Regrets

Capo: Fret 3 Intro Em D C D (Em) regrets regrets Em i moved the glass to my lips, took a sip and sighed D why does it feel like our lives on a slip 'n slide? C kids, they add stress, work ain't workin' the best C but that ain't the explanation D why this love is a mess Em i guess priorities are prioritised over time D and the only moments we spend are sleepin' side by side C mornin' breaks, same old nags and complaints C i'm just tryna drink my coffee, D if we engage, then we'll be late Em D i push it down to avoid a situation but all it does is come out C in the public places can't be as open when they recognise our faces C if they think it's heated, D i guess that's an understatement Em but it used to be alive, be electric, burnin' bright D there's a spark left in the embers, find some gasoline tonight C shut the world down, put the past behind C see the mountain, got so far to climb D is all that's left for you and i Chorus Em regrets D i'm not sayin' it's all in my head C but i can't help thinkin' what's next C when tomorrow is all we got left D Em confessing regrets why's there distance D when we're right here? C is the anger just proof we care? C and love and war is not fair D (Em) confessing regrets Em you're too young to understand that daddy's comin' home D every time i leave the house, you think i'm forever gone C guess it's from the hundred calls, goodnights on the telephone C see this tour, i've gotta get it done, D but why though? Em always said i'd pause work as soon as you came without structure, D i just slipped into depression again C this is just one of the things that i could never explain C each and every day rollin' the dice, D forever caught in the game Em still uprootin' you both until the sickness started D missed appointments, ripped apart C aimed to be the best dad here, but missed the mark C breakin' both you and your sister's heart, D and your mother's too Em i see the wood for the trees cause there's no other truth D i gotta stop puttin' work so far in front of you C cause there is so much more love that a man can lose C tryna get back what i've lost, D sittin' here and all i've got is Chorus Em regrets D i'm not sayin' it's all in my head C but i can't help thinkin' what's next C when tomorrow is all we got left D Em confessing regrets why's there distance D when we're right here? C is the anger just proof we care? C and love and war is not fair D (Em) confessing regrets Em three generations of women in my life, they keep me stood D they know that i don't keep in touch with your mum as much as i should C i know that you got your battles, the same as me dna in us, we feel so much shame in us, D what we offer ain't enough Em these thoughts get dangerous, one way that the pain can stop D hope and pray that both my little girls, they ain't the same as us C missed out on so much, i really need to make it up D take you on a plane and just, you know Em i wish there was more one on one, and you didn't share your son D i wish you didn't have to move away, but that sorta thing comes C when your identity shifts from bein' mum and imogen to havin' my stage name in front D when you talk to anyone Em my mind's all in a rut, i'm unsure if it will stop D if you reach out and think that i'm ignorin' you, i'm not C i'm just lost in my head, wish i could pause the world and then C i'll talk it out with you D and say, "mum, i'm here again with" Chorus Em regrets D i'm not sayin' it's all in my head C but i can't help thinkin' what's next C when tomorrow is all we got left D Em confessing regrets why's there distance D when we're right here?
