Verse 1:
C majorC       FF  C majorC           G+G
I never could admit when I was wrong then
G7G7             C majorC
Even when I felt it in my bones
C majorC          FF  C majorC         G+G
I always thought it meant I was a strong man
FF          C majorC
I wondered why I was alone

Verse 2:
C majorC        FF   C majorC      G+G
That's when she stepped out of the ether
G7G7              C majorC
Right when I was ready for a dance
C majorC              FF  C majorC     G+G
She said "I don't know what I am doin' either
FF             C majorC
"But I know when to take a chance"

Pre-Chorus 1:
DmDm      A minorAm     G7G7
I never knew how to be scared
C majorC   C/BC/B       A minorAm   C/BC/B     FF
'Til I found somethin' I knew I couldn't lose
G+G
And then the revelation trembled
G7G7
From the tip of my own tongue

Chorus 1:
C majorC         FF  C majorC    G+G
Like the last few boys at the Alamo
C majorC         FF   C majorC    G+G
Like Cusack holdin' that stereo
A minorAm     E MajorE     C majorC     F minorFm
What Juliet hears from Romeo:
C majorC     G+G     C majorC
"I'm never gonna say goodbye"

Verse 3:
C majorC       FF        C majorC           G+G
There's not a way to someone's heart that she can't see
G7G7                     C majorC
She lives and loves with everything she's got
C majorC         FF     C majorC      G+G
My dark days showed me how to ask, "Why me?"
G7G7                 C majorC
She's shown me how to ask, "Why not?"

Verse 4:
C majorC      FF    C majorC        G+G
She keeps a hopeful eye upon the future
G7G7                   C majorC
She finds a way to share that hope with me
C majorC           FF    C majorC          G+G
And the few times that she's met some sort of failure
G7G7                    C majorC
She wins a little back by laughin' at defeat

Pre-Chorus 2:
DmDm       A minorAm     G7G7
I never knew what life could be
C majorC     C/BC/B     A minorAm    C/BC/B   FF
So it stands to reason why I can't go back
G+G
And now a revelation trembles
G7G7
From the bottom of my heart

Chorus 2:
C majorC         FF    C majorC         G+G
And like the stock exchange for the billionaires
C majorC         FF    C majorC       G+G
Like a convert singin' his morning prayers
A minorAm        E MajorE      C majorC    F minorFm
From the scientist to the polar bears:
C majorC      G+G      C majorC
"I'm never gonna say goodbye"

Chorus 1:
C majorC       FF    C majorC     G+G
Like those last few boys at the Alamo
C majorC      FF    C majorC     G+G
Like Cusack holdin' that stereo
A minorAm     E MajorE    C majorC   F minorFm
What Juliet hears from Romeo:
C majorC         G7G7
"I'm never gonna say
C majorC        G7G7
"Don't make me say
C majorC     G+G       C majorC
"I'm never gonna say goodbye"
