Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Difficulty: Novice


G            D
Step one, you say, "We need to talk."
  Em          D          G
He walks, you say, "Sit down. It's just a talk."
G       D
He smiles politely back at you
Em      D         G
You stare politely right on through
G        D
Some sort of window to your right
G      D          Em
As he goes left and you stay right
        D        G
Between the lines of fear and blame
G       D
You begin to wonder why you came

C        D        G
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
      Em      D
Somewhere along in the bitterness
C            D       Em
And I would have stayed up with you all night
       G    D    G
Had I known how to save a life


G         D
Let him know that you know best
G           D
'Cause after all you do know best
Em          D
Try to slip past his defense
G          D
Without granting innocence
Em       D
Lay down a list of what is wrong
Em         D
The things you've told him all along
Em      D
Pray to God, he hears you
G        D
And I pray to God, he hears you


C        D        G
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
       Em      D
Somewhere along in the bitterness
C            D       Em
And I would have stayed up with you all night
       G    D    G
Had I known how to save a life


G            D
As he begins to raise his voice
Em          D            Em
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
         D
Drive until you lose the road
G               D
Or break with the ones you've followed
Em     D
He will do one of two things
Em        D
He will admit to everything
Em           D
Or he'll say he's just not the same
   G        D
And you'll begin to wonder why you came


C        D        G
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
       Em      D
Somewhere along in the bitterness
C            D       Em
And I would have stayed up with you all night
       G    D
Had I known how to save a life


C        D        G
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
       Em      D
Somewhere along in the bitterness
C            D       Em
And I would have stayed up with you all night
       G    D    G
Had I known how to save a life
G    D   G
How to save a life
G    D
How to save a life


C        D        G
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
       Em      D
Somewhere along in the bitterness
C            D       Em
And I would have stayed up with you all night
       G    D    G
Had I known how to save a life


C        D        G
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
       Em      D
Somewhere along in the bitterness
C            D       Em
And I would have stayed up with you all night
       G    D    G
Had I known how to save a life
G    D   G
How to save a life
G    D   G
How to save a life


Enjoy!
