CAPO: 3


Intro: A minorAm

verse 1

It's not so much that you left
             C majorC   A minorAm
It's that you didn't come back

It's not the pain that you felt
        C majorC    FF
But the obvious lack

   G+G        C majorC    FF
I was always a step behind
   G+G        C majorC    A minorAm
I was always a step behind


verse 2

It wasn't watching you go
           C majorC   A minorAm
But the way that you went

With a kiss on the cheek
           C majorC    FF
And a cheque for the rent


   G+G        C majorC    FF
I was always a step behind
   G+G        C majorC    A minorAm
I was always a step behind


Instrumental: A minorAm  C majorC  A minorAm  C majorC  A minorAm


verse 3

It wasn't really your fault
             C majorC   A minorAm
Because you made it mine too

While you were looking around
         C majorC   FF
I was looking at you

   G+G        C majorC    FF
I was always a step behind
   G+G        C majorC    G+G
I was always a step behind


Bridge

And I hope you remember
        C majorC    G+G
When it comes around

The gentle release
       C majorC    DmDm
Of letting me down
          G+G   DmDm
And the way that it felt
         G+G   DmDm
To be high on yourself
             G7G7  G+G
Blindly running into the new____


Instrumental: A minorAm  C majorC  A minorAm  C majorC  A minorAm


verse 4

I haven't relearned to walk
          C majorC   A minorAm
It's hard to learn that

And it wasn't the fall
            C majorC    FF
It was the push in the back


   G+G        C majorC    FF
I was always a step behind
   G+G        C majorC
I was always a step behind
 FF         G+G        C majorC    FF
Ohh, I didn't see it coming up from behind
   G+G        C majorC
I was always a step behind
