Depending what kind of ticket you bought, you can either choose another train during the day (ticket without Zugbindung) or even refund the ticket (with or without extra fee, depending on the ticket) and buy a new one for an earlier train.
If you bought the cheapest one, then no. You can only take that specific train. You received an email from DB after buying, the information about your ticket and options should be written there somewhere.
Edit: Swap for better wording.
well it says strictly non exchangeable and non refundable so I guess I'll have to stick with that one 😄 thanks
