Capo 1.
[Intro]
Bm A G (2x)
[Verse 1]
Bm A
There was rain on the street last night
G
We stood beneath the front door light
Bm A G
And everything we said we made sure the neighbors heard
Bm A
You called me this, I called you that
G
Standing on the welcome mat
Bm A G G/F#
Everything we felt it all came down to just one word
Em
But you couldn't say it and I couldn't say it
[Chorus]
D A G
You know I tried my best to go away
D A G G/F#
I know you cried 'cause I hurt you so
Em D
It should have been easy to say that we were through
Em A
But to walk away from love was more than we could do
G A Bm
It was almost goodbye
G A Bm
Almost goodbye
Bm A G (2x)
[Verse 2]
Bm A
Now there was sun through the blinds this morning
G
When I opened up my eyes
Bm A G
Outside I could hear a mockingbird
Bm A G
And I could feel your heartbeat as you laid there by my side
Bm A G G/F#
I thought of how the world could end with just one word
Em
But you didn't say it, and I didn't say it
[Chorus]
D A G
You know I tried my best to go away
D A G G/F#
I know you cried 'cause I hurt you so
Em D
It should have been easy to say that we were through
Em A
But to walk away from love that way was more than we could do
G A Bm
It was almost goodbye
G A Bm
It was almost goodbye
[Interlude]
Bm A G (2x)
[Bridge]
Em A
Sometimes the most important words are the ones that you leave unspoken
[Chorus]
(Up one step)
E B A
You know I tried my best to go away
E B A A/G#
I know you cried 'cause I hurt you so
F#m E
It should have been easy to say that we were through
F#m B
But to walk away from love that way was more than we could do
A B C#m
It was almost goodbye
A B C#m
Almost goodbye, no, I couldn't say it was
A B C#m
Almost goodbye, oh oh
A B E
Almost goodbye.
