_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
Step [Bb] one, you say we [Dm] need to talk, he [Bb] walks You say sit [Dm] down, it's [F]
just [Bb] a talk
He smiles [Dm] politely back at [Bb] you You stare [Dm] politely right on [Bb] through
Someone's throwing a window to your right She goes left and you [Bb] stay right
Swinging lines of fear and blame You begin to wonder why you [Eb] came
Where did I go [F] wrong, the lost [Gm] man?
Somewhere [Bb] alone in a bed of death
[Eb] Can I put out the [F] heat of you all [Gm] night?
When I know [Bb] how to save a life _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Let him know what [Am] you know best [Gm] Cause after all you do know _ [Bb] best
Try to slip [Am] past his defense [Gm] Without granting [Am] his _ thanks
[Bb] _ Lay down [Am] and listen to what is wrong Think [Dm] to talk him [Bb] along
Pray to God he hears [F] you [Gm] And pray to God he [Am] hears you
[Eb] Where did I go [F] wrong, the lost [Gm] man?
Somewhere [Bb] alone in a bed of death
[Eb] Can I put out the [F] heat of you all [Gm] night?

_ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ She begins [Am] to raise his voice [Gm] You lower yours [Dm] and grant him [Am] one last [Bb] choice
Drive until you [Am] lose the road A break with the ones that follow _
[Bb] She will do [Dm] one of two [Gm] things You admit [Dm] to everything
[Bb] Or he'll say she's just [F] not the same [Gm] And you'll begin [F] to wonder [Bb] why you [Eb] came
Where did I go [F] wrong, the lost [Gm] man?
Somewhere [Bb] alone in a [F] bed of death
[Eb] Can I put out the [F] heat of you [Gm] all night?
When I know [Bb] how to save a [Eb] life
Where did I go [F] wrong, the lost [Gm] man?
