would go. Our lives are better left to chance.
D/C Bm G C/E G C/E G
I could have missed the pain,but i'd have had to miss the dance.
Holding you I held everything.For a moment wasn't I the king?
But if i'd only known how the king would fall, hey who's to say you
know i might have changed it all. And now i'm glad i didn't know the
way it all would end, the way it all would go. Our lives are better
left to chance. I could have missed the pain,but I have had to miss
the dance.
C D D/C Bm
