CAPO 3 to match album
This is a piano song, so you really need to listen to get the chord timing just right.
It is near impossible to find any of her sheet music, so this is one I figured out on my own.

G C G C
I think about how it might have been
G C G C
We'd spend our days travelin'
Am G
It's not that I don't understand you
Am G
It's not that I don't want to be with you
Am
But you only wanted me
C
The way you wanted me
G C G C
So, I will head out alone and hope for the best
G
And we can hang our heads down
C G C
As we skip the goodbyes
G C
And you can tell the world what you want them to hear
Dm Am
I've got nothing left to lose, my dear
Bm Fd/D
So, I'm up for the little white lies
C D2 G
But you and I know the reason why
C G
I'm gone, and you're still there
C G
I'm gone, and you're still there
C G
I'm gone, and you're still there
G C G C
I'll buy a magazine searching for your face
G C G C
From coast to coast or wherever I find my place
Am G
I'll track you on the radio, and
Am Dm
I'll sign your list in a different name
Am
But as close as I get to you
C
It's not the same
G C G C
So, I will head out alone and hope for the best
G C
We can pat ourselves on the back
G C
And say that we tried
G C
And if one of us makes it big
Dm Am
We can spill our regrets
Bm Fd/D
And talk about how the love never dies
C D2 G
But you and I know the reason why
C G
I'm gone, and you're still there
C G
I'm gone, and you're still there
C G
I'm gone, and you're still there
Bm Fd/D
So, steal the show, and do your best
Am
To cover the tracks that I have left
D7
I wish you well and hope you find
Am
Whatever you're looking for
D7
The way I might've changed my mind
Am Bm C D7
But you only showed me the door
G C G C
So, I will head out alone and hope for the best
G C
We can pat ourselves on the back
G C
And say that we tried
G C
And if one of us makes it big
Dm Am
We can spill our regrets
Bm Fd/D
And talk about how the love never dies
C D2
But you and I
C Fd/D
You and I--------
C D2 G C G C G C G
You and I know the reason why
