Step [Bb] one you say [Dm] we need to talk he [Bb] walks you say sit [Dm] down
[F] It's just [Bb] talk smiles [Dm] politely back at [Bb] you
You stare [Dm] politely [Bb] right on through
Someone's door [Dm] to window [Bb] to your right
She goes [Dm] left and you [Bb] stay right
between [F] the lines
[Bb]
You stare and blame you begin [Dm] to [Bb] wonder why you [Eb] came
Where did I go [F] wrong?
I lost [Gm] my mind
Somewhere [Bb] along in [F] the bed of death
[Eb] I pulled out the [F] key to you all [Gm] night
And I know [Bb] how to save a life
Let him know what [Dm] you know best
[Bb] Cause after all you [Dm] do know [Bb] best
Try to slip [Dm] past his defense
[Bb] Without granting [Dm] any sense
[Bb] Lay down [Dm] and listen to what is [Bb] wrong
And think [Dm] to talk no [Bb] more
Pray to God [F] he hears you
[Gm] And pray to God [Dm] he hears [Eb]

[Bb] She begins [Dm] to raise his voice
[Bb] You lower yours
[Dm] Grant him one last [Bb] choice
Drive him till you [Dm] lose the road
[Bb] A break with the ones [Dm] to follow
She [Bb] will do [Dm] one of two [Bb] things
You admit [Dm] to everything
[Bb] Or she'll say she's [Dm] just [F] not the [Bb] same
And you'll begin [F] to wonder [Bb] why you [Eb] came
Where did I go [F] wrong?
