Verse 1:
B   
There are things that
                 F#  E
used to make me smile
       B   
One of them was you
                  F#   E
for just a little while
         B               
You left me for dead
              F#
so far away I replaced
         E
you with fear and shame
B      
You'll be happy on

Verse 2:
B
There are things that

used to make me laugh
    B     
But now they're deeply
              F#  E
buried in the past
  B                               
I left them there
so far away
  F#                            
Replaced my humor
E
with my pain
B             
I'll be happy on
          F#    E
the day it  dies

had to say Goodbye
         E
