- INTRO: Bm A G Bm A G
-
- Bm A
- There was rain on the street last night
- G
- We stood beneath the front door light
- Bm A G
- And everything we said we made sure the neighbors heard
- Bm A
- You called me this, I called you that
- G
- Standing on the welcome mat
- Bm A G G G/F#
- Everything we felt it all came down to just one word
- Em
- But you couldn't say it and I couldn't say it
-
- D A G
- CHORUS: You know I tried my best to go
- D A G G G/F#
- I know you cried 'cause I hurt you so
- Em D
- It should have been easy to say that we were through
- Em A
- But to walk away from love was more than we could do
- G A Bm
- It was almost goodbye
- G A Bm
- Almost goodbye
-
- (Bm) A G
-
- Bm A
- Now there was sun through the blinds this morning
- G
- When I opened up my eyes
- Bm A G
- Outside I could hear a mockingbird
- Bm A G
- And I could feel your heartbeat as you layed there by my side
- Bm A G
- G G/F#
- I thought of how the world could end with just one word
- Em
- But you didn't say it, and I didn't say it
-
- CHORUS
-
- SOLO: (Bm) A G Bm A G
-
- Em A
- Sometimes the most important words are the ones that you leave unspoken
- E B A
- You know I tried my best to go
- E B A A A/G#
- And I know you cried 'cause I hurt you so
- F#m E
- It should have been easy to say that we were through
- F#m B
- But to walk away from love that way was more than we could do
- E B A
- It was almost goodbye
- E B A
- Almost goodbye, no, I couldn't say it was
- E B A
- Almost goodbye, oh oh
- E B A
- Almost goodbye (fade)
