[D] Today I did something I [G] never
[D] thought I'd
A choice wasn't easy, [A] but I had to
All [D] the years together on those cold, lonely nights
[G] I never thought I'd be strong enough [Gm] to leave it all behind
[Gm] [D] And today I said [A] goodbye to an old [D] friend of mine
[G] [D]
Oh, it won't [D] be easy, but it's never easy
When you [G] let down [D] the one you love
[G] [D] There's someone at home who needs me
So [A] I'm giving up,
[G] she [D] always knew the truth
Never left my side
[G] Man, love like that only [Gm] comes once in a life
[E] [D] So today I [A] said goodbye to an old [D] friend of mine
[G] [D]
[Em] [D] [G] My hands were shaking and my knees [D] were weak
[Em] [D] As [G] I poured my last [C] shot [G]
and I drank my [A] last drink
[D] And [A]
I heard [D] freedom ring
When that bottle hit the floor [G] and I just walked away
I'm [Gm] not needing anymore
