No Intro
(No Chord---------)D
Just because we're scared
G
Doesn't mean we're wrong
A
The world wont end today
D
If both of us move on
D
But didn't we have a time?
G
You can't take that away
A
We've had a change of mind
D
I think it's safe to say
D G
That I've been holding on to you
D
And you've been holding on to me
A
'Cause neither of us wants to be
D
The first to say goodbye
D G
And so it goes, we must admit
D
How we both thought that this was it
A
Tough we couldn't make the pieces fit
D
You can't say we didn't try
Solo: D D D G G A A D D*
(No Chord----------------) D
Close the window, pull the shade
G
Turn the key and lock the door
A
We'd best forget the plans we made
D
We don't live here anymore
D
Maybe somewhere down the line
G
We'll remember who we were
A
Another place, another time
D
Some old feelings start to stir
D G
But I've been holding on to you
D
And you've been holding on to me
A
'Cause neither of us wants to be
D
The one to say goodbye
D G
And so it goes we've grown apart
D
Guess you could say we lost a heart
A G*
And even though we came up short
(No chord-------------------)
You can't say we didn't try
