Stopped awhile this morning on my way back home 
         A
I had to realize this time that I'd be all alone 
              Em                            G
'Cause she is moving somewhere far away not slow 
             D        A       E
And though I tried so hard to please her 
D            A             G    D
She said she really had to go 

D
Even though this time it really hurts me bad 
                  A
I've been through similarities it's not the first break I've had 
      Em                                 G
And I just can't let it bring me down so low 
             D        A       E
And though I tried so hard to please her 
D             A                 G     D
There must be something more to know

Never thought that we would find our end this way 
F#m
It seemed that everything was going fine 
Bm
Still with all the things that I can do or say 
         D                                 E      G  D
It won't change the fate I know so well is mine 

D A Em G D A E D A G D

D
So I'll stop and look right past the pain 
             A
Because I've been in love before and I can love again 
            Em                            G
While she's moving somewhere far away not slow 
             D        A       E
And though I tried so hard to please her 
D            A             G   D
She said she really had to go
