Em Gm A 
There was a time when I was satisfied 
C  Gm A 
There was a time when everything felt right 
Em Gm A 
But now' the time for me to decide 
C  Gm A 
and I've only got one solution in sight

Don't know where I'm going 
but I know it feels right 
And though my feelings are showing 
I'm not afraid, it's alright

So long, farewell 
A Cm Dm C G A 
I've got to go 
A Cm A 
Be strong, be well 
A Cm Dm C G A 
I want you to know 
 
that maybe we'll meet someday 
 
Should I stay or should I go 
It was not easy to decide 
But you told me I already knew 
I guess you wondered why I lied
