  			(A) Well, early this mornin' it dawned on me --- 
The kind of man she needed me to (E) be 
She made a list and laid it there beside me - on the bed 
Now (D) what I should a done keeps a-runnin' through my (E) head 
 
CHORUS 
(1-Well), (2-Oh!), (3-But), 
I (A) shoulda done this and I shoulda done that 
I shoulda been there and she'd never left 
I shoulda been (E) hangin' onto ev'ry word she had to (A) say 
But, it's a little too late, she's a little too gone 
She's a little too right, I'm a little too wrong 
Now would (E) be a good time to change, but it's a little too (A) late. 
 
Last night I came home at a quarter to three --- 
And to my surprise she wasn't mad at me 
I thought she'd finally realized not to worry - I'd be home 
And then I realized this mornin' she was gone. 
 
2nd CHORUS 
 
3rd CHORUS 
 
Right now would be the time to change 
But It's a little too late.
