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

  C             D                Em 
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend 
            G             D/F# 
Somewhere along in the bitterness 
    C                   D                Em 
And I would have stayed up with you all night 
             G             D/F# 
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
