G5                    D5    
Step one you say we need to talk 
    E5                 D5        D5    G5 
He walks you say sit down it?s just a talk 
             D5           E5 
He smiles politely back at you 
             D5       D5      G5 
You stare politely right on through 
               D5          E5 
Some sort of window to your right 
             D5       D5      G5 
As he goes left and you stay right 
              D5             E5 
Between the lines of fear and blame 
                   D5     D5        
And you begin to wonder why you came 
 

  C5             D5                E5 
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend 
            G5             D5 
Somewhere along in the bitterness 
    C5                   D5                E5 
And I would have stayed up with you all night 
             G5             D5 
Had I known how to save a life 
 
[continua da mesma forma] 
 
Let him know that you know best 
Cause after all you do know best 
Try to slip past his defense 
Without granting innocence 
Lay down a list of what is wrong 
The things you?ve told him all along 
And pray to God he hears you 
 
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend 
Somewhere along in the bitterness 
And I would have stayed up with you all night 
Had I known how to save a life 
 
As he begins to raise his voice 
You lower yours and grant him one last choice 
Drive until you lose the road 
Or break with the ones you?ve followed 
He will do one of two things  
He will admit to everything 
Or he?ll say he?s just not the same 
And you?ll begin to wonder why you came 
 
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend 
Somewhere along in the bitterness 
And I would have stayed up with you all night 
Had I known how to save a life
