Verse 1

Give me a minute to compose myself, it’s been

Long, long time since you been gone

I can still remember conversations we had

 too bad that’s all that now lingers on

So many times I nearly fooled myself that some

Body like you could give a damn about me

But then one day you stepped into my life,

 All my strife was a fleeting memory

Chorus

Over and over in my head at night (What went wrong…)

Didn’t lose the battle, didn’t give up the fight (What went wrong…)

To let you go then didn’t make things right (What went wrong…)

Can’t hide the tears from my eyes now that love’s gone and passed me by…

Verse 2

During my life I somehow steered you wrong

From the road once again was driving us way

I pushed aside the things that meant so much

 With hope that you’d be happy some day

I wear regret now like the lines on my face

Not a day passes on that you don’t cross my mind (You don’t cross my mind…)

Couldn’t raise the spirits of a broken heart

 And chance the ?

Chorus

Over and over in my head at night (What went wrong…)

Didn’t lose the battle, didn’t give up the fight (What went wrong…)

To let you go then didn’t make things right (What went wrong…)

Can’t hide the tears from my eyes now that love’s gone and passed me by…

Solo

One time through verse chords, once through chorus...

Can’t hide the tears from my eyes now that love’s gone and passed me by…

Verse 3

But then one day I gathered up the nerve

To trip all of those waves I vowed not to cross

In for this pain that flow deep down inside

 That still housed the dreams that all is not lost

Upon the threshold I now made my ascent

towards the door I should close on one careless days

Without a look, just pass them buzzer and in

 That your name, long gone, it faded away

Chorus

Over and over in my head at night (What went wrong…)

Didn’t lose the battle, didn’t give up the fight (What went wrong…)

To let you go then didn’t make things right (What went wrong…)

Can’t hide the tears from my eyes now that love’s gone and passed me by…

Key Change for this Part - now in A:

Love’s gone

Love’s gone

Love’s gone

Now that love’s gone and passed me by…
