D
Sorry I'm so late
G
I've been out walking
D
Trying to find A way to tell you
A
What I think you already know
D
I'd never want to hurt you
G
Cause darling I still love you
D
But things aren't like they used to be
A D/G
It's time for letting go
D
I wasn't out there looking
G
But a month ago last sunday
D
I met someone just like you
A
In line at the grocery store
D
And We've been spending time together
G
Yeah, she knows all about you
D
The truth is she can give me
A D
What you can't anymore
(chorus)
G
Looking back when we first started
D
I never thought I'd see this day
G
If only I could write the pages
A G / A
Our story wouldn't end this way
D
I feel so much better
G
Knowing we could have this moment
D
But it looks like it may rain soon
A
And it's gettin' kind of late
D
I'll always bring your roses
G
Each time I come to visit
D
The caretaker's waving
A D
He wants to close the gates
(chorus)
G
Oh, lookin' back when we first started
D
I never thought I'd see this day
G
If only I could write the pages
A
Our story wouldn't end this way
G / D
G
If only I could write the pages
A D / G / D
Our story wouldn't end this way
Sent as a dedication to Tammy, who fell in love with this song the first time
she heard it. May God always keep you in his arms, and may we always be
friends.
