[Em] I think it's [C] time that [G] I be honest
I [Em] [C] should've told you [G] not to go
[Em] [C] Thought I knew just [G] what I wanted
I [Em] [C] didn't know [G] myself at all
[Bm] You're with somebody [C] I can't be
[Bm] [F#m] But I can tell that [C] you're [Em] happy
It's time for me to [C] finally meet [G] somebody new
Take [E] her to all the [C] places that I [G] took us to
And [Em] she might have me [C] forget
But [G] loving her is something [D] I could [Em] never do
[C] [G] Because I had [Bm] you, [Em] because I had [C] you
Hey [G] [Em]
[C] [G]
[Em] [C] remember [G] when I told you
That [Em] you and I, we'd go [C] down in history [G] together
Yeah, and does your sister ask about me
And [Em] you and I, what we [C] had, is it [G] gone forever?
[Bm] You're with somebody [C] I can't be
[Em] [Bm] But I can [D] tell that [C] you're [Em] happy
It's time for me to [C] finally meet [G] somebody new
Take [Em] her to all the [C] places that I [G] took us to
And [Em] she might have me [C] forget
But [G] loving her is something I could [Em] never do
[G] Because I had you, [Em] because I had [C] you
There's nothing, [G]
there's nothing [Em] left to lose
[F#] [G] Because I had you, [Em] babe
[C] There's nothing, [G]
nothing that [Em] I could [F#] do
I [G] wish I had you
But I [Em] think it's time I [C] finally found [G] somebody new
And [Em] tell myself that she's the [C] one to [G] get me through
And [E] she might have me [C] forget
But [G] loving her is something [D] I just [E] couldn't do
[C] Because I had you
