Rhythm tips ↓-↓↑-↑↓↑

[D]I fell by the wayside, like everyone else [Bm]I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, but I was just kidding myself [G]Our every moment, I start to replace [A]‘Cause now that they’re gone all I hear are the words that I needed to say

[D]When you hurt under the surface [Bm]Like troubled water running [G]cold Well time can heal but this [A]won’t

[D]So, before you [A]go… Was there some[Bm]thing I coulda said to make your heart beat better? If [G]only I’d have known you had a [A]storm to weather. [D]So, before you [A]go… Was there some[Bm]thing I coulda said to make it all stop hurting? It [G]kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless [A]So, before you [D]go…

[D]Was never the right time, whenever you called. [Bm]Went little by little by little, until there was nothing at all. [G]Our every moment, I start to replay. [A]When all I can think about is seeing that look on your face.

[D]When you hurt under the surface. [Bm]Like troubled water running [G]cold. Well time can heal but this [A]won’t.

[Bm]Would we be [G]better off by [D]now? If I’d [A]let my walls come [Bm]down? Maybe I [G]guess we’ll never [A]know. [A]You know, you [D]know.

Before you [A]go… Was there some[Bm]thing I coulda said to make your heart beat better? If [G]only I’d have known you had a [A]storm to weather. Before you [A]go… Was there some[Bm]thing I coulda said to make it all stop hurting? It [G]kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless [A]So, before you [D]go…
