Intro - G, D, Em, D
Step Gone you say we nDeed to talk
He wEmalks you say sit doDwn it’s just a tGalk
He smiles polDitely back at yoEmu
You stare polDitely right on thrGough
Some sort of wiDndow to your rEmight
As he goes leDft and you stay riGght
Between the liDnes of fear and bEmlame
And you begin to woDnder why you came
CHORUS:
WhCere did I go wDrong, I lost a frEmiend
Somewhere alGong in the bitDterness
And CI would have stayed Dup with you all nEmight
Had I known hGow to savDe a life
SECOND VERSE:
GLet him know that Dyou know best
Cause Emafter all you Ddo know best G
Try to slip past Dhis defense
EmWithout granting Dinnocence G
Lay down a Dlist of what is wrong Em
The things you've Dtold him all along
And Gpray to God he Dhears you
And Empray to God he Dhears you
CHORUS:
WChere did I go Dwrong, I lost a fEmriend
Somewhere alGong in the bitDterness
And CI would have stayed Dup with you all nEmight
Had I known hGow to savDe a life
THIRD VERSE:
G D Em D
GAs he begins to raiDse his voice
You Emlower yours and Dgrant him one last choice G
Drive until you Dlose the road
Or Embreak with the ones you've Dfollowed G
He will do Done of two things
EmHe will admit to Deverything
GOr he'll say he's just Dnot the same
And Emyou'll begin to woDnder why you came

CWhere did I goD wrong, I lost a Emfriend
Somewhere alGong in the bitDterness
And CI would have stayed Dup with you all nEmight
Had I known hGow to savDe a life

Somewhere alGong in the bitDterness
And CI would have stayed Dup with you all nEmight
Had I known hGow to savDe a life
