Intro
[C] [C]
[C] [C]
Verse
[C]Sit down, baby
I got some [Am]things that you need to hear
[C] It's been building inside me
And there's some [Am]air that we need to clear
[C] What if I told you
I'm not the [Am]man that you think I am?
[C] Would you listen or would I only hear
The [Am]door behind you slam?
In my [C]face
As I [Am]watched you walking out of my world
[F] Knowing it'd be the last day
That [Dm]I could call you my girl
And that I broke your [C]heart
Chorus
[C] [G/B] [F] There's nobody but me left to [C]blame
[C] [G/B] [F] And the face in my mirror won't be the [C]same
[Dm]I'll sit alone hoping you're okay,[C] but how will I know?
[Dm]You say my eyes'll never see you again [C] after you go
I [Dm]love you, but I broke it
And the [Am]cracks are starting to show
[Dm]So before you [F]go
Here's one for the [C]road[C]
Verse
I've been [C]searching
For a [Am]way to say that you should move on
[C] And I think we both know
That you'll be [Am]better off after you're gone
[C]You'll find somebody that looks at you
The [Am]way you used to look at me
[C] We both know it's been a while
Since I was the [Am]man you used to see
[F] I'm so tired of walking around
[Dm] Knowing I'm the one that let us down
And I [C]broke your heart
Chorus
[C] [G/B] [F] There's nobody but me left to [C]blame
[C] [G/B] [F] There was a fire between us, but I blew out the [C]flame
[C] [G/B] [F] And ever since, we've both been trying to hang [C]on
[C] [G/B] [F] But I think we both know that the fire is [C]gone
[Dm] Our love was a garden
But it [Am]seems some weeds have grown
[Dm] All the flowers have wilted
And the [Am]seeds have all been sewn
[Dm]So before we [F]go
Here's one for the [Am][Am]road[C][C]
