Tony Arata, Garth Brooks
Bm, C, D, Em, F, G
Looking back on the memory of the dance we shared near the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I know that you'd ever say goodbye?
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 couldn't miss the pain, but I'd have to miss the then.
Holding you, I held everything, for a moment was another king.
If I only know how the king will 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 battle after chance
Could have missed a bet
But I would have to miss the then
It's my life, it's battle after chance
I could have missed a bet
That I would have to miss the band
