Standard (EADGBE)
Verse 1
Give me a minute to compose myself, its been
Long, long time since you been gone
I can still remember conversations we had
too bad thats 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 )
Didnt lose the battle, didnt give up the fight (What went wrong )
To let you go then didnt make things right (What went wrong )
Cant hide the tears from my eyes now that loves 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 youd be happy some day
I wear regret now like the lines on my face
Not a day passes on that you dont cross my mind (You dont cross my mind )
Couldnt raise the spirits of a broken heart
And chance the ?
Chorus
Over and over in my head at night (What went wrong )
Didnt lose the battle, didnt give up the fight (What went wrong )
To let you go then didnt make things right (What went wrong )
Cant hide the tears from my eyes now that loves gone and passed me by
Solo
One time through verse chords, once through chorus...
Cant hide the tears from my eyes now that loves 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 )
Didnt lose the battle, didnt give up the fight (What went wrong )
To let you go then didnt make things right (What went wrong )
Cant hide the tears from my eyes now that loves gone and passed me by
Key Change for this Part - now in A:
Loves gone
Loves gone
Loves gone
Now that loves gone and passed me by
