Am                            F 
Life should be like a game of cards 
              C                                  G 
You make a mistake, shuffle the deck, and start over 
          Am                           F 
It should be just like drivin' in your car 
                  C                             G 
Get lost and your navigation system gets you closer 

   Am                       F 
But there ain't no handbook, you're on your own 
C                    G 
 Got no instructions, when it comes to love 
Am                           F 
'Cause once you do something, can't be undone 
C                        G  
 Wish I could take back, letting you go 

          Am                F

                C                       G 
I wouldn't have said (I don't need you around) 
              Am                     F 
Alone in this bed (the silence is so loud) 
           C                        G 
So I would treat you the best, baby if I knew then

Love should come with remote controls 
               C                             G 
Then I could rewind it to the time it was better 
          Am                     F 
It should have a restart button, so 
               C                                G 
I could travel right back to the day that I met her 

   Am                       F
