Verse 1:
        G               Dsus4/F#  Step one you say we need to talk
   Em                Dsus4/F#           GHe walks you say sit down it’s just a talk
              Dsus4/F#         He smiles politely back at you
 Em            Dsus4/F#          GYou stare politely right on through
               Dsus4/F#  Some sort of window to your right
Em         Dsus4/F#             GAs he goes left and you stay right
            Dsus4/F#             EmBetween the lines of fear and blame
                 Dsus4/F#     And you begin to wonder why you came


Chorus:
C                 DWhere did I go wrong
         EmI lost a friend
           G              DSomewhere along in the bitterness
    CAnd I would have stayed 
 D                Emup with you all night

   G                  Dsus4/F#  Try to slip past his defense
Em              Dsus4/F#Without granting innocence
  G           Dsus4/F#           Em  Lay down a list of what is wrong
                  Dsus4/F#The things you’ve told him all along
 G              Dsus4/F#And pray to God he hears you

Verse 3:
 GAs he begins to 
Dsus4/F#raise his voice
   EmYou lower yours and 
Dsus4/F#               Ggrant him one last choice
                Dsus4/F#Drive until you lose the 
        Emroad Or break with the 
            Dsus4/F#ones you’ve followed
  G           Dsus4/F#  He will do one of two things
Em               Dsus4/F# He will admit to everything
GOr he’ll say he’s 
Dsus4/F#just not the same
EmAnd you’ll begin to 
Dsus4/F#wonder why you came

Chorus:
C                 DWhere did I go wrong
