Intro:
[C] [F] [Em] [Dm]
[C] [F] [Em] [Dm] [G]
Verse 1:
[C] [Em]
We had the right love
[F] [Em]
At the wrong time
[Dm] [C#aug]
Guess I always knew inside
[F] [G] [Csus4] [C]
I wouldn't have you for a long time
[F/A] [E7/G#]
Those dreams of yours
[Em] [Am]
Are shining on distant shores
[F/A] [Em]
And if they're calling you away
[F] [G]
I have no right to make you stay
Chorus
[Cadd2] [C]
(But) somewhere down the road
[F] [Em]
Our roads are gonna cross again
[Am] [G]
It doesn't really matter when
[Cadd2] [C]
But somewhere down the road
[F] [Em]
I know that heart of yours
[F] [G]
Will come to see
[F] [Em] [Dm] [G] [C]
That you be-long with me
Instrumental:
[F] [Em] [Dm] [G]
Verse 2:
[C] [Em]
Sometimes good-byes
[F] [Em]
Are not for-ever
[Dm] [C#aug]
It doesn't matter if you're gone
[F] [G] [Csus4] [C]
I still be-lieve in us to – ge - ther
[F/A] [E7/G#]
I understand
[Em] [Am]
More than you think I can
[F/A] [Em]
You have to go out on your own
[F] [G]
So you can find your way back home
Repeat Chorus (And…)
Bridge:
[G#] [A#] [C] [Dm] [Am7]
Let-ting go is just another way to say
[Fm] [A#] [G] [C/G]
I'll al-ways love you so
Tag:
[C] [Em]
We had the right love
[F]
At the wrong time
[Em] [Dm] [Em]
Maybe we've only just begun
[F] [G]
Maybe the best is yet to come
Repeat Chorus (‘Cause…)
Coda:
[F] [Em] [Dm] [G] [C]
