Standard (EADGBE)

This time I almost made it, came so close to saying no

 I almost found the words to make you go

This time I almost made it, almost pushed you away

But my heart cried out begging you to stay

Now I'm laying here beside you cryin' softly

 Cause I know you're going home to her

 Cause you belong to her and you go home to her

I know you still away, I know there'll be another day

That you'll come back again

And you'll say hello friend and I'll reach out my hand

This time I almost made it, this time I almost made it
