Clint Black & Wynonna Judd


Intro  E  G#m  B  E  Gb7sus4  F#


B                  E
   I`ve been bound   to leave you
D#m                       E
   We`ve known that for a while
G#m                        C#
   I`m sure it`s something I can`t do
           C#m              F#    F#7
If I can`t leave you with a smile

        B            E
I don`t know how far   I`ll have to go
         G#m                   C#
Till I`m sure those eyes won`t cry
          C#m              G#m
And in my mind I`ve left enough to know
             C#m7      F#
That I can`t leave you
               B
With a bad goodbye


    E           G#m
Goodbye, easier said than done
    G#m                       F#
Goodbye, there`s no good when you`re the one
          D#m           G#m
Whose goodbye you swore would never come
    C#m           F#             F#7
And in my goodbye you`re finding none


B                  E
   I`m still bound   to leave you
D#m                    E
   I surely don`t know how
G#m                      C#
   My heart won`t let me put you through
             C#m                F#   F#7
What my mind said should happen now

B                    E
  I don`t know where   we`ll go from here
          G#m          C#
There may be no way to fly
                  C#m              G#m
And the cloud I`m in just makes it all too clear
             C#m7
That I can`t leave you
       F#      B
With a bad goodbye


    E           G#m
Goodbye, easier said than done
    C#m                  F#
Goodbye, there`s no good when you`re the one
          D#m           G#m
Whose goodbye you swore would never come
    C#m           F#             F#7
And in my goodbye you`re finding none


B               E
  How can we be     so far between
F#         G#m     G#m7     C#
  Where we are and one more try
        C#m              G#m
And any way I look, I`ve only seen
             C#m       C#m7
That I can`t leave you
       F#      B  E C#m E  B
With a bad goodbye
