Verse 1:
E*                 B*
Sorrow is a lonely feeling.
  A*                   C*
Unsettled is a painful place.
E*                       B*
I've lived with both for far too long now
A*                 C*
Since we've parted ways.
          E*                B*
I've been wrestling with my conscience,
      A*              C*
And I found myself to blame.
C*
If there's to be any resolution,

I've got to peel my pride away.

Chorus:
G                      Em
  Just between you and me,
                      A#/G
I've got something to say.
               Cadd9
Want to get it straight

Before the sun goes down.
                     Em
Just between you and me,
                       A#/G
Confession needs to be made.
                 Cadd9
Recompense is my way to freedom now.
G                      Em
  Just between you and me,
                      Cadd9
I've got something to say.

Verse 2:
   E*                B*
If confession is the road to healing,
   A*                       C*
Forgiveness is the promised land.
E*                  B*
I'm reaching out in my conviction.
    A*               C*
I'm longing to make amends.
       E*                       B*
So I'm sorry for the words I've spoken,
    A*              C*
For I've betrayed a friend.
C*
We've got a love that's worth preserving,

And a bond I will defend.

Chorus:
G                      Em
  Just between you and me,
                      A#/G
I've got something to say.
               Cadd9
Want to get it straight
                    G
Before the sun goes down.
                     Em
Just between you and me,
                       A#/G
Confession needs to be made.
                 Cadd9
Recompense is my way to freedom.
G                      Em
  Just between you and me,
                      Cadd9
I've got something to say.

Bridge:
D#*                   F*                
     In my pursuit of God, I thirst for holiness.
Gm*                    A#
     As I approach the Son, I must consider this:
D#*               F*                
     Offenses unresolved, they'll keep me from the throne.
Gm*                 A#
     Before I go to Him, my wrong must be atoned.

C*
If there's to be any resolution,
                            D*
I've got to peel this pride away.

               Cadd9
Want to get it straight
                    G
Before the sun goes down.
                     Em
Just between you and me,
                       A#/G

So let me say it today.
