Intro: D  Bm  G  A 
 
D                             Bm 
Darlin', I was hoping that we could pretend 
               G                        F#m        Em            A  A7 
And make believe that we could still live happily and start again 
            D                                       Bm 
Seems like you and I, we've been caught up in your world of lies 
        G                  F#m             Em      A  A7 
I kept believing you could start a new and be a friend 
                F#m 
Well I've got something I wanted to tell you and it's the last thing I wanted to say 
 
But I think I must go there anyway... 
 
Chorus 
        D ( E ) G ( A )          A ( B )      D ( E ) 
Goodbye how do you say goodbye? 
G ( A )         F#m ( G#m )         Bm ( C#m ) 
Do I just look you in the eye, shake your hand, wish you well 
        Em ( F#m ) A ( B )                            D ( E )  Bm ( C#m )  G ( A )  A ( B  E ) 
After all this time... I never wanted for goodbye 
 

D                               Bm 
Don't let go I was devoted to your heart and soul 
               G                 F#m                    Em            A  A7 
And then we took a turn and I had to learn what I tried not to know 
            D                                   Bm 
Seems like yesterday I give the world just to hear you say 
                  G                  F#m 
A simple whisper of a word or two, like "I love you" 
                      Em               A  A7 
Breaks my heart to see it end this way 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 

         F#m       Em 
Goodbye can it ever be the same? 
         F#m         Em 
Goodbye did we lose more than we gained? 
       F 
There's nowhere to hide, baby I feel it inside 
 
As my heart cries out your name, goodbye...
