Verse 1:
            D5  G5
Bittersweet sea ? sons
D5         E5                 C5 
Mistake a warm winter for spring
               D5    G5            D5       E5                C5
Seems like I?m best at leaving when leaving is not the best thing


Pre ? Chorus 1:
    G5                              D5
You couldn?t help it if you needed more than I could give
       E5                      C5
That?s just the way it goes now


Verse 2:
           D5  G5          D5    E5              C5
I call you mis - placed but never a waste of my time
                  D5   G5
Everybody?s gonna make mistakes,
    D5         E5            C5
But you?ll never be one of mine


Pre ? Chorus 2:
    G5                              D5
You couldn?t help it if you needed more than I could give
       E5                      C5
That?s just the way it goes now
  G5                             D5
I knew you felt me leaving long before I ever did
       E5                      C5
That?s just the way it goes now


Chorus 1:
         G5      (bass line: B5 - C5 - D5 ) Eb5
Loved me fearless when you needed to
          E5                     A5
You would not rest till you came through
   C5             D5         C5
So God bless and thank you

Verse 3:
            D5 G5         D5         E5             C5
There is no an - ger, it's just you and I and the truth
               D5 G5       D5      E5              C5
You can try to make her but love will not be forced to bloom , to bloom


Pre ? Chorus 3:
    G5                              D5
You couldn?t help it if you needed more than I could give
       E5                      C5
That?s just the way it goes now
    G5                               D5
The only love worth fighting for is one that you can win and,
       E5                      C5
That?s just the way it goes now

Chorus 2:
          G5     (bass line: B5 - C5 - D5 ) Eb5
You would not break but you could bend
              E5                A5
And for love?s sake you let love end,
    C5                                D5
But I still swear that you were God sent

Pre ? Chorus 4:
        G5                                D5
And you stood before me knowing that the wings I have you gave
           E5                      C5
And that?s just the way it goes now
      G5                                      D5
And I barely have the breath to breathe much less to fly away
           E5                      C5
And that?s just the way it goes now

Chorus 3:
      G5 (bass line: B5 - C5 - D5 ) Eb5      E5
And a silence entered the room for a one last,
           A5
"I?m gonna love you"
   C5             Eb5      E5 ? A5 - 
So God bless and thank you
   C5             D5         C5 -   D5
So God bless and thank you,     thank you
C5  -   D5
