^G She never really had a chance^D/F#, on that fateful moonlit night ^Em7 Sacrificed without a fight, ^Cmaj7a victim of her circumstance ^G Now that I've become aware^D/F#, and I've exposed this tragedy ^Em7 A sadness grows inside of me, it ^Cmaj7all seems so unfair

[Bridge 2]

^Em7 I'm learning all about my ^Dlife, by looking through her [Chorus] ^Am7Eyes, and as her image ^Cwandered through my head I ^Gwept just like a baby as I ^Dlay awake in bed ^Am7 And I know what it's like to ^Close someone you love And ^Emthis felt just the ^Dsame

^G She wasn't given any choice^D/F#, desperation stole her voice ^Em7 I've been given so much more in life, I've ^Cmaj7got a son, I've got a wife ^G I had to suffer one last time^D/F#, to grieve for her and say goodbye ^Em7 Relive the anguish of my past, to ^Cmaj7find out who I was at last
