F#                      C#/F#  
Step one you say we need to talk
    D#m7                C#/F#               F#  
He walks you say sit down it’s just a talk
             C#/F#             D#m7  
He smiles politely back at you
             C#/F#               F#  
You stare politely right on through
               C#/F#            D#m7  
Some sort of window to your right
             C#/F#               F#  
As he goes left and you stay right
              C#/F#               D#m7  
Between the lines of fear and blame
                  C#/F#  
And you begin to wonder why you came

B                 C#                  D#m  
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
            F#               C#/F#  
Somewhere along in the bitterness
    B                     C#                  D#m  
And I would have stayed up with you all night
             F#  *    C#/F#  *
Had I known how to save a life
 
F#     C#/F#     D#m7     C#/F#  

F#                   C#/F#  
Let him know that you know best
       D#m7            C#/F#  
Cause after all you do know best
F#                    C#/F#  
  Try to slip past his defense
D#m7                C#/F#  
Without granting innocence
F#               C#/F#               D#m7  
   Lay down a list of what is wrong
             C#/F#  
The things you’ve told him all along
F#                C#/F#  
Pray to God he hears you
      D#m7              C#/F#  
And I pray to God he hears you
    B                 C#                  D#m  
And where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
            F#               C#/F#  
Somewhere along in the bitterness

F#     C#/F#     D#m7     C#/F#  

    F#              C#/F#  
As he begins to raise his voice
    D#m7               C#/F#                   F#  
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
                 C#/F#  
Drive until you lose the road
    D#m7                          C#/F#  
Or break with the ones you’ve followed
F#               C#/F#  
   He will do one of two things
D#m7                C#/F#  
He will admit to everything
F#                        C#/F#  
Or he’ll say he’s just not the same
     D#m7              C#/F#  
And you’ll begin to wonder why you came
