[Gm] [A] [G]
[C#m] [A] [D]
[G] [A] [D] When I was young, on [F#m] the street where I live,
[C] my brother and I [F#] [G] were two distant kids.
[Gm] We shared the same house.
[D] We shared the [Bm] same name.
[G] But out in the street, we [A] played two different games.
[D] Mama and Daddy, [A] fighting wars there,
[D] left [F#] their two boys [G] to go it alone.
[Gm] We searched for a harbor [D] safe for the [Bm] heart.
[G] Like ships in the night, our [Am] lives drifted [A] apart.
[Em]
Sometimes I think [A] of things that [D] might happen.
[G] [A] [D] In the garden of life, nothing blooms [A] on its own.
[F#] And nothing is gained [G] by living alone.
This plain little [Gm] truth [D] lay hidden in [Bm] time.
[G] I wasted so [Em] much trying to find what [A] was mine.
[D] Years flowed behind [F#m] us.
We mourned for the dead and [Am] never took
notice [G] of things left unsaid.
[Gm] But life's for the living, [D] and the river [B] moves on.
[G] There's time for our kids, and that moment [A] is gone.
[G] Sometimes I think of things [A] that [D] might have been.

[A]
[G] [A] Shh.
We [D]
[G] [A] [D] grew into men.
[F#m] We went our own ways.
[D] What [Am] happened in years [Em] began with a day.
[Gm] The days felt like leaves [D] till the branches [G] were bare,
a wound in the chest just like the tip of [A] a spear.
[D] If I could go back, [F#] I might find a new [A] road,
[F#] an untraveled path [G] I missed long ago.
[Gm] But the arrow of time [D] flies [Bm] only one way.
[G] The past is the night, [A] and it's gone in the day.
[G] Sometimes I think of [A] things that [D] might have been.
[F#m] [G]
[Gm] [Em] Sometimes I think [G] of [A] things that [D] might have been.
