C                    G/B   
Step one you say we need to talk
    Am                 G        G/B    C
He walks you say sit down it?s just a talk
             G/B           Am
He smiles politely back at you
             G       G/B      C
You stare politely right on through
               G/B          Am
Some sort of window to your right
             G       G/B      C
As he goes left and you stay right
              G/B             Am
Between the lines of fear and blame
                   G     G/B       
And you begin to wonder why you came

  F             G                Am
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
            C             G/B
Somewhere along in the bitterness
    F                   G                Am
And I would have stayed up with you all night
             C      G/B     C  
Had I known how to save a life


C                 G/B
Let him know that you know best
C                G/B            C
Cause after all you do know best
                 G
Try to slip past his defense
C                 Am
Without granting innocence
C          G/B             Am
Lay down a list of what is wrong
                 G
The things you?ve told him all along
C                  G/B
And pray to God he hears you
Am                     G
And you pray to God he hears you

  F              G               Am
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
            C              G/B
Somewhere along in the bitterness
    F                    G               Am
And I would have stayed up with you all night
             C      G/B     C
Had I known how to save a life

C                 G/B
As he begins to raise his voice
C                  G/B                 C
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
                 G
Drive until you lose the road
Am                            G
Or break with the ones you?ve followed
C           G/B
He will do one of two things
Am               G
He will admit to everything
C                   G/B
Or he?ll say he?s just not the same
Am                  G/B
And you?ll begin to wonder why you came

F                G              Am
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend 
           C            G/B
Somewhere along in the bitterness
    F                    G               Am
And I would have stayed up with you all night
             C      G/B    C
Had I known how to save a life
