Intro: C  G  Dm  F 

C                   G 
When I left and I said goodbye 
                     Dm                    F 
Did you know that I meant it, mmmm, that time? 
    C                   G 
I guess that I didn't quite realize 
                    Dm                     F 
What I was saying goodbye to - whoa, just yet 
       C              G                     Dm 
The only asphalt to pave my way - that was you 
F 
And damn it if I didn't try to do 
F 
Everything that I was supposed to 

     C                  G 
And now - what do I do now? 
              Dm                    F 
Oh, I don't know cuz I'm still leaving 
  C                         G 
Now - who's gonna save me next time? 
         Dm                  F 
Oh, not you - ooh, for the first time 

          C                   G 
And the road to get to the other side of your rainbow 
               Dm           F 
It wasn't for me - oh, I guess 
     C                    G 
I couldn't live - not according to your path 
     Dm         F 
I believe, at least 
F 
But damn it if I didn't give it a damn good shot 
                     C 
At least to try and be 

                  G 
And what do I do now 
              Dm                  F 
Oh, I don't know cuz I'm still leaving 
     C                          G 
And now - who's gonna save me next time? 
         Dm                  F 
No, not you - ooh, for the first time 
                        C        G 
But somehow I'll be alright 
                   Dm     F 
Somehow I'll be alright, ooh 

 C                  G 
When I left and I said goodbye 
                      Dm            F 
Did you know that I meant it that time? 
     F 
And damn it if I didn't try to do 
     F 
Everything that I was supposed to 

     C                  G 
And now - what do I do now? 
             Dm 
Oh, I don't know 
            F 
Oh, I'm leaving 
     C                         G 
And now, who's gonna save me next time? 
              Dm 
Oh, won't be you 
               F 
Ooh, for the first time 
                       C      G 
But somehow I'll be alright 
                     Dm 
Somehow I'll be alright
