Reba McEntire - How Was I To Know
INTRO: G C D/F# G C D/F# G C D/F# G C D D/F#
G D/F#
My world revolved around you
G C D D/F#
Every word was a promise I was hanging on
G D/F#
Swept up inside a whirlwind
G C D
I just couldn't see the end 'til you were gone
C D
Oh, I thought I would fall apart
C D
With shattered dreams and a broken heart
C D
Scrabbling in the dark
CHORUS:
G Em
How was I to know that I'd be okay
C D
Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away
G Em
How was I to know I would be this strong
C D
I had what it takes all along
G C D G C D G D/F#
How was I to know___
G D/F#
What I was so afraid of
G C D D/F#
Turned out to be my freedom in disguise
G D/F#
Now I know what I'm made of
G C D
Guess it just took some time to realize
C D
Oh, I was blind, I couldn't tell
C D
Put too much faith in someone else
C D
I gave up on myself
CHORUS:
G Em
How was I to know that I'd be okay
C D
Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away
G Em
How was I to know I would be this strong
C D
I had what it takes all along
G C D G C D G D/F#
How was I to know___
