He smiles [Em] politely back at [C] you
You stare [Em] politely [C] right on through
Some sort [Em] of window to your [Am] right
His [Em] ego's left and you stay [C] right
Between [Em] the lines of fear [Am] and blame
You begin [G] to wonder why you [F] came, where did I go [G] wrong?
I was all up [Am] for friends, so where were [C] we long [G] in bitterness?
[F] And I would have stayed [G] up with you [Am] all night
Yet I know [C] how [G] to save a [C] life

_ [C] Let him know that [Em] you know best
[A] Cause after [Em] all you do know best
[C] Try to slip [G] past his defense
_ [A] Without [Em] granting his sense
_ [C] _ Lay down [G] a list of what [Am] is wrong
The things [Em] you've told him all [C] along
Pray to God [Em] he hears you

[C] As he begins to [Em] raise his voice
[A] You lower [Em] yours and grant him one last [C] choice
Drive [Em] until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you follow _ _
[C] He _ will do [G] one of two [Am] things
