How Do I Say Goodbye

[Intro]:G G G

 

[Verse 1]: C Em7 Am7

Early mornin', there's a message on my phone,

F C G

It's my mother saying "Darlin', please come home",

C Em7 Am7

I fear the worst, but how could you leave us all behind?

Dm C G

There's so much to say, but there's so little time.

 

[Chorus]: F C

So how do I say goodbye,

G Am F C

To someone's who's been with me for my whole damn life?

G Am F C

You gave me my name and the color of your eyes,

G Am

I see your face when I look at mine,

F C G

So how do I, how do I, how do I say goodbye?

 

[Verse 2]: C Em7 Am7

When I couldn't you, you always saw the best in me,

F C G Gadd11 G

Right or wrong, you were always on my side,

C Em7 Am7

I'm scared of what life without you's like,

Dm C G

And I saw the way she looked into your eyes.

 

[Pre-Chorus]: Dm Am

And I promised if you go,

G

I will make sure she's alright.

 

[Chorus]: F C

So how do I say goodbye,

G Am F C

To someone's who's been with me for my whole damn life?

G Am F C

You gave me my name and the color of your eyes,

G Am

I see your face when I look at mine,

F C G

So how do I, how do I, how do I say goodbye?

 

[Bridge]: Dm C Am

And there's no way you can ever let me down,

C*

You wanna steal you some time and start again,

G*

You'll always be my closest friend,

Dm C Am

And some day, we are gonna make it out,

G E

Just hold the light, just hold the light.

 

[Chorus]: F C

So how do I say goodbye,

G Am F C

To someone's who's been with me for my whole damn life?

G Am F C

You gave me my name and the color of your eyes,

G Am

I see your face when I look at mine,

F C G

So how do I, how do I, how do I say goodbye?

 

[Outro]: F C G

So how do I, how do I, how do I say goodbye?
