Verse
 C
Sit down, baby
            Am
I got some things that you need to hear
C
  It's been building inside me
                 Am
And there's some air that we need to clear

C
  What if I told you
            Am
I'm not the man that you think I am?

C
  Would you listen or would I only hear
     Am
The door behind you slam?

       C
In my face
      Am
As I watched you walking out of my world

F
 Knowing it'd be the last day
     Dm
That I could call you my girl

                       C
And that I broke your heart


Chorus
C G/B F                                C
        There's nobody but me left to blame
C G/B F                                         C
        And the face in my mirror won't be the same

Dm                                C
I'll sit alone hoping you're okay,  but how will I know?
Dm                                     C
You say my eyes'll never see you again   after you go

   Dm
I love you, but I broke it
         Am
And the cracks are starting to show

Dm            F
So before you go
                    C     C
Here's one for the road


Verse
           C
I've been searching
      Am
For a way to say that you should move on
C
  And I think we both know
                Am
That you'll be better off after you're gone

 C
You'll find somebody that looks at you
    Am
The way you used to look at me
C
 We both know it's been a while
                Am
Since I was the man you used to see

F
 I'm so tired of walking around
Dm
  Knowing I'm the one that let us down
       C
And I broke your heart


Chorus
C G/B F                                C
        There's nobody but me left to blame
C G/B F                                                  C
        There was a fire between us, but I blew out the flame
C G/B F                                                C
        And ever since, we've both been trying to hang on
C G/B F                                            C
        But I think we both know that the fire is gone

Dm
   Our love was a garden
        Am
But it seems some weeds have grown
Dm
  All the flowers have wilted
         Am
And the seeds have all been sewn

Dm           F
So before we go
                    Am    Am    C    C
Here's one for the road

Dm    Am    C    C
