A            Em
I turned my head away
A                 Em
Didn't wanna hear what you said
A           Em          G
You had changed your mind

A               Em
I showed up insecure
A                   Em
But I thought you would be sure
A               Em       G
I guess I had a lost sight

            D
But at the end of my life
           Em
I'll look back on my life
     F#m                    G
I'll know that my life was good
        D
At the end of my life
          Em
I'll look back on my life
       F#m                    G    
See I went after you like I should

                   F#m   Em
I went after what I wanted
                   F#m   Em
I went after what I wanted
                    G   A
And I never really got it
                        D
But it don't matter at all

A          Em
I guess it was a lot
    A              Em
To ask for these things we'd lost
A              Em        G
I guess it was just a dream
A                  Em
And time changes many things
A                 Em
But my heart it still sings
A            Em        G
For you, I don't know why

            D
But at the end of my life
           Em
I'll look back on my life
     F#m                     G
I'll know that my life was good
        D
At the end of my life
           Em
I'll look back on my life
      F#m                     G    
See I went after you like I should

                   F#m   Em
I went after what I wanted
                   F#m   Em
I went after what I wanted
                    G   A
And I never really got it
                        D
But it don't matter at all

Bm        F#              G           
I thought I'd spend my last days
 D          D/C#
Holding your hand
      Bm     F#         G    
Now all of my senses lie here dead on the floor

            D
But at the end of my life
           Em
I'll look back on my life
    F#m                     G
I'll know that my life was good
        D
At the end of my life
           Em
I'll look back on my life
      F#m                     G    
See I went after you like I should

                   F#m  Em
I went after what I wanted
                   F#m  Em
I went after what I wanted
                   G    A
And I never really got it
                   G    A
Everything else I lost it
                   F#m  Em
I went after what I wanted
                   F#m  Em
I went after what I wanted
                       G         A  
And the rest don't really matter
                    G
It don't matter at all

D   Em   F#m   G

                    D
It don't matter at all
