Before you go (2025)   (video)
 
    D
1.     I fell by the wayside, like everyone else,
Bm
    I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, but I was just kidding myself.
G
    Our every moment, I start to replace
A
     cause now that they re gone all 
 
    I hear are the words that I needed to say.
D
    When you hurt under the surface
Bm                                           G
    like troubled water running cold.
                                                    A
    Well, time can heal, but this won't.
 
  D                    A
So before you go,
                           Bm
was there something I coulda said to make your heart beat better ?
    G
If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather.
  D                    A
So before you go,
                           Bm
was there something I coulda said to make it all stop hurting ?
     G
It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless.
  A                    D
So before you go.
 
   D
2.    Was never the right time, whenever you called,
Bm
    went little by little by little, until there was nothing at all,
G
    our every moment, I start to replay
A
    when all I can think about is seeing that look on your face.
D
    When you hurt under the surface
Bm                                           G
    like troubled water running cold.
                                                    A
    Well, time can heal, but this won't.
 
  D                    A
So before you go,
                           Bm
was there something I coulda said to make your heart beat better ?
    G
If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather.
  D                    A
So before you go,
                           Bm
was there something I coulda said to make it all stop hurting ?
     G
It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless.
  A                   Bm
So before you go.
 
                            G                 D
+  Would we be better off by now
             A                          Bm
    if I'd let my walls come down ?
                     G                           A
    Maybe, I guess we ll never know,
 
    you know, you know !
 
 
+  CHORUS (ending in G)
