What Might Have Been

Tryin hard to better my position Might have better luck goin fishin , for now it s all about dreams and wishin
What should have been, would have been, could have been
What might have been
Verse: I was booked to play the Grand Ole Opry but that same night the place went dark Had the Olympic torch to set afire, it rained and I couldn t get a spark Even got a shot on Jeopardy, the week Ken Jennings got his start. Repeat Chorus/Bridge: They say that timing is everything, my life could use a nip and tuck can t seem to get both of my feet in step now, my life s been hit by a Mac truck.

Solo to: Wish I could finally end this spell I m under for now I m

stuck in the quicksand and Repeat Chorus. What should have been, would have been, could have been, my faith s not shakin , what should have been, would have been, could have been my minds not breakin what should have been, would have
been, could have been, what might have been Spoken: Hey listen up guys, I m thinkin of goin to Vegas, anybody want to come along? No, what do you mean no? Hey I ll drive
(crash) alright maybe I won t drive.
