CStep one you say we Gneed to talk
 He Amwalks you say sit Gdown it's just a Ctalk
 He smiles poGlitely back at Amyou
 You stare poGlitely right on Cthrough
 Some sort of Gwindow to your Amright
 As he goes Gleft and you stay Cright
 Between the Glines of fear and Amblame
 And you begin to Gwonder why you came
FWhere did I go Gwrong, I lost a Amfriend
 Somewhere aClong in the bitterGness
 And FI would have stayed Gup with you all Amnight
 Had I known Chow to Gsave a Clife
CLet him know that Gyou know best
 Cos Amafter all you do Gknow best C
 Try to slip pGast his deAmfence
 Without Ggranting innoCcence
 Lay down a Glist of what is Amwrong
 The things Gyou've Gtold him all Calong
 And pray to God he Ghears you
FWhere did I go Gwrong, I lost a Amfriend
 Somewhere aClong in the bitterGness
 And FI would have stayed Gup with you all Amnight
 Had I known Chow to Gsave a Clife
CAs he begins to Graise his voice
 You Amlower yours and Ggrant him one last Cchoice
 Drive until Gyou lose the Amroad
 Or break with the Gones you've Cfollowed
 He will do one Gof two thingsAm
 He will admitG to everythingC
 Or he'll say hGe's just not theAm same
 And you'll begin toG wonder why you came
FWhere did I go Gwrong, I lost a Amfriend
 Somewhere aClong in the bitterGness
 And FI would have stayed Gup with you all Amnight
 Had I known Chow to Gsave a Clife
FWhere did I go Gwrong, I lost a Amfriend
 Somewhere aClong in the bitterGness
 And FI would have stayed Gup with you all Amnight
 Had I known Chow to Gsave a Clife
Chow to Gsave a Clife
Chow to Gsave a Clife
FWhere did I go Gwrong, I lost a Amfriend
 Somewhere aClong in the bitterGness
 And FI would have stayed Gup with you all Amnight
 Had I known Chow to Gsave a Clife
