Tom : Em
Em7
We'll say goodbye and then we'll leave it at that and
Cadd9
I don't want to hurt you more than I already have.
Gadd9
And all the words we don't say
Cadd9
Come out and cause all the pain that we were trying to miss.
Em7
And all the things inside that we had tried to hide.
Cadd9 Dsus4
Could be to blame for all of this.
[Chorus]
G
And don't say that tomorrow will never come.
Cadd9
It's supposedly only one day away.
Em7
Just as far as the breath
Cadd9
That you take from me.
Gadd9
In your ears I softly whisper sweet nothings and
Cadd9
Tell you all of the things I wish that we could have been.
Em7 Cadd9
And all of the things I still wish we could be.
[Verse]
Em7
I never meant to push you away
Cadd9
And I should have said all the things that my heart said to say.
Gadd9
That now become all the words that cause all of the hurt
Cadd9
That we were trying to miss.
Em7
And all the feelings inside that we had all tried to hide.
Cadd9 Dsus4
Could be to blame for all of this.
[Chorus]
G
And don't say that tomorrow will never come.
[Bridge]
Em7
And as you walk away.
Cadd9
You take the hope of a brand new day.
Gadd9 Dsus4
And all of the secrets that you've held.
[Ending]
Gadd9
And you tell me tomorrow will never come.
Cadd9
It's forever and always one day away.
Em7 Cadd9
So close but yet too far out of reach.
Gadd9
In your ears I softly wasted sweet nothings and
Cadd9
told you all of the things that we never could have been.
Em7 Cadd9
And all of the things we could never be.
Em7
I'll say goodbye and then I'll leave it at that and I
Cadd9
Don't want to hurt you more that I already have.
