[Intro – acoustic + steel] (acoustic guitar, soft pedal steel) (male vocal 1 – deep, calm) If I’d known What I know now I might’ve stayed A little longer ⸻ [Verse 1] (acoustic, light drums) (male vocal 1 – storytelling) We were young Didn’t think Time could ever Slip away Took the moments As they came Never thought They wouldn’t stay ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] (pedal steel lifts) (male vocal 2 – slightly higher tone) Funny how life Teaches you late Makes you see What you couldn’t face ⸻ [Chorus] (acoustic, steel, harmonies building) (male vocal 3 – warm lead) If I’d known How fast it goes I would’ve held on A little closer (male vocal 2 joins) If I’d known What love can be I would’ve given you More of me (band harmonies – all four, soft) But time don’t wait And hearts don’t see What matters most Till it’s too late ⸻ [Verse 2] (acoustic continues) (male vocal 2 – reflective) I still drive Past that place Where we used to Sit and talk Now it’s quiet Different now Just a memory That I lost ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] (male vocal 4 – soft emotional) Maybe I Was too young to see All the things You gave to me ⸻ [Chorus] (fuller band, still traditional) (male vocal 1 + 3 layered) If I’d known How fast it goes I would’ve held on A little closer (male vocal 2) If I’d known What love can be I would’ve given you More of me (band harmonies – all four) Time don’t wait And hearts don’t see What matters most Till it’s too late ⸻ [Bridge – stripped] (acoustic only, very soft steel) (male vocal 4 – intimate) Some things don’t come back around (male vocal 1 joins softly) Some words stay left unsaid (male vocal 3) And all I’ve got now (all together soft) Are the thoughts inside my head ⸻ [Final Chorus] (full band, rich harmonies) (male vocal 1 lead) If I’d known How fast it goes (all vocals building) I would’ve held on A little closer (male vocal 3 lead) If I’d known What love can be (all vocals) I would’ve given you More of me (band harmonies – full, wide) Time don’t wait And hearts don’t see What matters most Till it’s too late ⸻ [Outro] (acoustic fading, pedal steel) (male vocal 1 – soft) If I’d known…
