[E] Should have been open
[G#m] Should have done more
[C#m] Should have learned a lesson [A] from the year before
[E] Should have been [Em] honest
[G#m] Should have just [D] cried
[C#m] Should have told me [A] there was nothing left inside
[B] Now the road keeps [C#m] rolling [A] on forever
And [B] the years keep [C#m] pulling [A] us apart
[B]
[C#m] We lost something [A] I still wonder what it was
It shouldn't matter
It shouldn't [B] matter, but it [E] does
[G#m]
[C#m] [A]
[E] You should have just broken
[G#m] You should have come clean
[C#m] You should have been sad instead [A] of being so mean
[E] It shouldn't be [G#m] easy
But it shouldn't be hard
[C#m] You shouldn't be a stranger in your [A] own backyard
Now [B] the road keeps rolling [C#m] [A] on forever
And [B] the years keep [C#m] pulling us [A] apart
I [B]
[C#m] know it's over.
[A] I'm just saying this because
It shouldn't matter
[B] It shouldn't [A] matter, but it does
I [E] [B] [E]

[A] [E] [B]
[E] [B]
[E] shouldn't be [G#m] angry
I shouldn't hold on
[C#m] I shouldn't leave you [A] messages in every little song
[E] It could have been always
[G#m] It could have been [G] me
[C#m] We could have been busy naming [A] baby number three
[B] Now the road keeps [C#m] rolling [A] on forever
And [B] the years keep [C#m] pulling [A] us apart
[B]
[C#m] If it's on someone then I [A] blame the both of us
It shouldn't matter
Shouldn't [G#m] matter, but it Shouldn't matter
[C#m] Shouldn't matter, but [F#m] it Shouldn't matter
