G                      C
I had a moment, when I thought I might be wrong
G                       C
But Ashley how could it be
G                        C
I waited on the rooftop, all night long
G                          C
But you weren't coming for me
Em                              C
And now I'm sitting here like a mixed up little kid
Em                         C
You said you wanted me but you never did
G                         C
There was a moment when I thought our love was strong
G            C         G
But now that moment is gone


G                                  C
I could stand right underneath the window of your room
G                             C
Throwing rocks I've done it before
G                                    C
And I would love to find a reason to dazzle you with lies
G                              C
But I don't have the energy no more
Em                             C
And you never promise anything you didn't give
Em                               C
I assumed that you'd say yes but you never did
G                     C
There was a moment my love for you was strong
G            C         G
But now that moment is gone
G        C         G
Now that moment is gone


C
I saw you behind the camera
                                        G
Whispering to your friends and watching me
C 
I fell in love with you there
                                       G
Which proves the fool that I can often be



G                     C
I had a moment when I thought I might be right
G                       C
But Ashley how could it be
G                                   C
I drank your share bourbon thinking you might come around
G                                     C
There ain't no one on the rooftop but me
Em                              C
And now I'm sitting here like a mixed up little kid
Em                         C
You said you wanted me but you never did
G                     C
There was a moment my love for you was strong
G               C         G
But Ashley that moment is gone
G           C         G
Ashley that moment is gone
G        C         G
Now that moment is gone
