Intro:
G, D/F#, Cadd9, G, D5

Verse 1:
          GThere (320003@1)are things that should be easy to say
         D/F#When (200232@1)you know you love someone
      Cadd9While (x32030@1)waiting for the moment to come
 G (320003@1)            D5Another (xx023x@1)day has gone
    GThe (320003@1)stupid fears I keep inside
     D/F#That (200232@1)only heaven knows
     Cadd9They (x32030@1)scare me every time I have to
G (320003@1)               D5Face (xx023x@1)those simple words

Chorus 1:
             Em7
And then goodbyes are round the corner
             Cadd9And (x32030@1)then goodbyes don't last one day
       A7sus4So (002033@1)I'm scared the time is running out
      G (320003@1)           D5And (xx023x@1)I see you walk away
              Em7
There are goodbyes that no one cares about
    Cadd9And (x32030@1)others so hard to face
       A7sus4 (002033@1)    
So I'm trying to sing this song for you
        G (320003@1)             D5For (xx023x@1)the words I need to say...

Repeat intro

Verse 2:
I learned my lesson once
I thought I learned my lesson twice
And I know how bad it feels inside
When I can't make up my mind
Senseless words and sleepless nights
And my life's just falling apart
Oh tell me Lord why's it take so long
To let my heart speak out

Chorus 2:
Cuz then goodbyes are round the corner
And then goodbyes don't last one day
So I'm scared the time is running out
And I'll see you fade away
There are goodbyes that no one cares about
And others so hard to face
So I'm trying to sing this song to you
'Cause it's time for me to say...
...I love you

Repeat intro
End on G
