How To Say Goodbye

This is a VERY simple version of the song. I'm sure there's someone out there with 
minors and major sevenths and all that good stuff, but this works, so... it's what 
I wrote. Enjoy! :)



Intro:

C  F  C  Am  F  G  C


Verse 1-

C                         F           C
Tell me when the time we had slipped away
        Am                C
Tomorrow turned to yesterday
        G          F    
And I don't know how.
C                        F             C
Tell me what could stop this river of tears
             Am              F             G       C
It's been building up for years, for this moment now.



Chorus-

        Am   F              C    G
Here I stand,    arms open wide
               C                F                  C     G
I've held you close, kept you safe 'til you could fly.
C                         F            C
Tell me where the road ahead is gonna bend
              Am             F              G     C
And how to harness up the wind and how to say goodbye.



Verse 2-

C                      F               C
Tell me why, why does following your dreams
           Am            C
Take you far away from me?
       G            F
And I knew that it would.
C                         F               C
Tell me how to fill the space you left behind
             Am              F
And how to laugh instead of cry
            G       C
And how to say goodbye.


Repeat chorus





And that's it! Have fun!
