Step one you say we need to talk
D/F# G
He walks you say sit down it’s just a talk
D/F# Em7
He smiles politely back at you
D/F# G
You stare politely right on through
D/F# Em7
Some sort of window to your right
D/F# G
As he goes left and you stay right
D/F# Em7
Between the lines of fear and blame
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/F# Em
And I would have stayed up with you all night
G D/F#
Had I known how to save a life
G D/F# Em7 D/F#
G D/F#
Let him know that you know best

Try to slip past his defense
D/F# G
Without granting innocence
D/F# Em7
Lay down a list of what is wrong
D/F# G
The things you’ve told him all along

As he begins to raise his voice
Em7 D/F# G
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
D/F# Em7
Drive until you lose the road
D/F# G
Or break with the ones you’ve followed
D/F# Em7
He will do one of two things
D/F# G
He will admit to everything
D/F# Em7
Or he’ll say he’s just not the same
D/F#
And you’ll 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
