I'd Like To Have That One Back
Recorded by George Strait
Written by Bill Shore, Aaron Barker, Rick West

C
I heard somebody speak her name 
     F
They said she was still looking fine
C
And I could feel that same old flame 
  F                      G7
I once felt when she was mine

Em                        F
Always thought that I was missin' something 
Em                       F    C
But I found out much too late
         F         C
There'll never be another 
       F            G7
Who'll love me that way

F                     G7  C
I'd like to have that one back 
F                        C
I've never known someone so true
F               C        D7
And a love that pure and sweet 
                           G7
Is what a man should never lose

                        F
If my lips had said I'm sorry 
                                  C     D7 C
She might've stopped right in her tracks
          F                  C  F
But now I find my poor heart saying 
            G7            C
I'd like to have that one back


I can almost see her standing there 
F
Tears rollin' down her face
C
As she packed away her memories 
   F                     G7
In that old worn out suitcase

Em                     F
If I'd only known then what I know now 
Em                    F    C
I'd never opened that door
   F                    C           F       G7
Oh they just don't make hearts like hers anymore

Repeat #3,4
C          F                  C  F
I wouldn't hear my poor heart saying 
            G7            C
I'd like to have that one back
