Key: D

🎸 Intro:

G  C  Em



🎸 Verse 1:
G
It's been twenty years
C                            Em
Since I rose and cleared my throat
G
It's been ten years
C                            Em
Since I stood outside the church
G

It's been nine years
C                            Em
Since the ground became the sky
G
It's been eight years
C                            Em
Since I found an alibi
G
It's been six years
C                            Em
Since the dogs picked up game
G
It's been four years
C                            Em
Since I learned to love the pain
G
It's been one year
C                            Em
Since I stole life from the grave
G
And over all these years
C                            Em
Just three things I've tried to say

🎸 Chorus:
Em
I was wrong
G
I'm sorry
C
And I love you
Em
I was wrong
G
I'm sorry
C
And I love you
Em
I was wrong
G
I'm sorry
C
And I love you
Em               G     C
I love you


🎸 Verse 2:
G
I welcome everyone
C                            Em
But give them nothing when they arrive
G
Or else build a house
C                            Em
With no way to come inside
G
I've learned to hide my tears
C                            Em
Learned to hold them deep inside
G
And then sell my fears
C                            Em
Just to pick your pockets dry

🎸 Chorus:
Em
I was wrong
G
I'm sorry
C
And I love you
Em
I was wrong
G
I'm sorry
C
And I love you
Em
I was wrong
G
I'm sorry
C
And I love you
Em               G     C
I love you

🎸 Bridge:

G
I have misled you
C
I have misread you
Am
I've cared too much
C                                       D
And not enough In the same breath
Am
You've been my hope
C                                       D
My stretch of rope In life and death

🎸 Chorus:
Em
I was wrong
G
I'm sorry
C
And I love you
Em
I was wrong
G
I'm sorry
C
And I love you
Em
I was wrong
G
I'm sorry
C
And I love you
Em               G     C
I love you     (repeat 3x)
