Backstory:

I came up with the hook, verses were written together. This is a re-write of a previous version that musically was more Bruce Hornsby sounding (written mostly by Richard) 

I re-wrote this melody to be more contemporary sounding, and shortened the song length.

Should've Been Me – (new)
© 2012 Andy Taylor/Brooke Malouf/Richard Davis

Holding hands and kicking leaves
Window shopping on maple street
Walking with my meant to be, so care free
Feet barely touch the ground
Every time that she's around
Feeling like the king of this sleepy town 
Who finally found his queen
What's wrong with this scene
That guy isn't me

	Chorus 
	It should've been me
	It should've been me
	Oh What I'd give, to be making those memories
	I had the chance to have it all
	Now she found a new Mr. Wonderful
	'N he's living MY dream
	Oh It should've been me

Slow dancing in the record store
That used to be our thing
But I've never seen that look before
Or that diamond ring
How could I have been so dumb
Should've known this day would come 
Now I'm kicking myself for letting her go
'Cuz now I know

	Chorus 
	
	Music Break
	Bridge:
 	Maybe we could have worked things out
	A new beginning
	One of us could have said I'm sorry, for everything
	
	Chorus

Tag:  Yea It should've been me
