	        INTRO: Em   C 

Verse 1:

B7 Em I was hot G I went to parties a lot Y'know? Am I was driving Lamborghinis Bbm Sipping super-dry martinis C B7 In the tiniest bikinis on a yacht Em But I was depressed G Also completely obsessed Am An unhappy beauty queen A#m Who dreamed to be Miss Argentina B7 I had such low self-esteem I was a mess Am So I gave it all up for the netherworld Em I've been here forever, girl D If I was more clever, girl G I would've stuck it out B7 Knowing what life's about

Bridge:

Am Pain and joy and suffering G Failing but recovering F#m I'll tell you another thing Bm C Everyone here is alone Bm7 So if you are breathing B7 Go home!
Em If I knew then B7 What I know now Em I would have looked within and let love in somehow Em If I only knew Am Em The truth back then B7 I wouldn't have had my little 'accident'
INTRO: Em E B7

Verse 2:

B7 Em Don't be blind G You left your whole life behind Am See a shrink, Call a priest Bbm Ask the recently deceased C B7 Death is final and you cannot press rewind Am Don't jump when the light is red Em Toasters should be used for bread D Never smoke cigars in bed G B7 Nietzsche was right, y'know, to live is to suffer, bro Am Don't cheat on the one you wed G Never whip a thoroughbred B7 Angry pygmys shrunk his head B7 C Why did it take death to see B7 Happiness was up to me?
Em If I knew then B7 What I know now I would've laughed and danced Em And lanced every sacred cow I thought I knew Am But I was wrong B7 'Cause life is short Em But death is super long I exploded!
Instrumental A#7 D#m7 G#m A#m B7 E B C7
Fm If I knew then (If I knew) C7 What I know now C7 I would've crossed every line And drank all the wine Fm Before my final bow F If I knew (If I knew) A#m C The things that now I know C7 I would ride the highs and cherish the lows Going, it's a quick trick 'round the rodeo C C7 So before they lower the curtain, be certain to enjoy the show Fm That's what I know! Life is short but death is long D# Here, one minute then it's gone C# Thought I knew but I was wrong F Fm If I only knew what I know now!
