Intro

    

Verse 1

They grew up religious, outskirts of town
He liked to get high when nobody's around
For a while there, it was alright 
Summer before he got a degree
He thought it would be better to get down on a knee
For a while there, it was alright 

Pre-Chorus

The glory gets real old real fast
When all you do is live in the past
'Cause I don't wanna settle for a life like that
I don't wanna settle

Chorus

If I give in and I bury my dreams
Saying "I do" is to give him more peacе
And what does that make me? 
If I gavе up and I gave it all in
Sold myself for an easier win
Oh, what, I can't believe 
That could've been me, Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh 
That could've been me   

Verse 2

A hometown hero who never left
They praise him so much that it got to his head
For a while there, it was alright 
He told me he loved me at 18
He promised a world that he'd never seen
For a while there, it was alright 

Pre-Chorus

The glory gets real old real fast
When all you do is live in the past
'Cause I don't wanna settle for a life like that
I don't wanna settle

Chorus

If I give in and I bury my dreams
Saying "I do" is to give him more peacе
And what does that make me? 
If I gavе up and I gave it all in
Sold myself for an easier win
Oh, what, I can't believe 
That could've been me, Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh 
That could've been me   

Outro

Could've been me   
It could've, it could've been me
It could've, it could've been me
It could've, it could've been me
