This is my first tab so I hope you enjoy it!
I think this version is the most similar to the original song,
I'm sorry if you find any mistakes but it's natural
(remember that it's just my own interpretation of the song) Thanks! :) //Baby.doll
Intro: Am F C G
Verse 1:
Am F
When I was a young boy
C
I was living for the moment
G
The world was wide open
Am F
I had every choice
C
But with so many choices
G
I just didn't know what to do now
Am F
All I say is forget it
C
If you tell me I'll regret it
Just let it be what it is
G
Coz it's so easy to say
Chorus:
C F Am G
If I knew yesterday what I know today, where would I be tomorrow
C F Am
I won't let my soul slide away, I'd do whatever it takes
G
Coz this time's only borrowed
F C G Am
I got one life, one life, one life and I'm gonna live it
F C G Am
I got one life, one life, one life and I'm gonna live it right
Verse 2:
Am F
My daddy sat me down,
C G
he said "Son it's probably time to start making some plans"
Am F
And I said "No, not right now"
C
With so many choices
G
I just didn't know what to do now
Am F
All I'd say is forget it
C
When he'd tell me I'd regret it
Just let it be what it is,
G
Coz it's so easy to say

F C
You say the more you think you know what's right
