INTRO: Bm A G    Bm A G

Bm                           A
There was rain on the street last night
G
We stood beneath the front door light
Bm                      A                   G
And everything we said we made sure the neighbors heard
Bm                        A
You called me this, I called you that
G
Standing on the welcome mat
Bm                A                   G                              G G/F#
Everything we felt it all came down to just one word
Em
But you couldn't say it and I couldn't say it

                D    A           G
CHORUS: You know I tried my best to go
                D A              G              G        G/F#
                I know you cried 'cause I hurt you so
                Em                                   D
                It should have been easy to say that we were through
                         Em                                A
                But to walk away from love was more than we could do
                          G   A         Bm
                It was almost goodbye
                G    A         Bm
                Almost goodbye

(Bm) A G

Bm                                         A
Now there was sun through the blinds this morning
G
When I opened up my eyes 
Bm                  A                    G
Outside I could hear a mockingbird
Bm                                A                 G               
And I could feel your heartbeat as you layed there by my side
Bm                         A                           G                  
G  G/F#
I thought of how the world could end with just one word
Em
But you didn't say it, and I didn't say it

CHORUS

SOLO: (Bm) A G    Bm A G

Em                                        A
Sometimes the most important words are the ones that you leave unspoken
E    B        A
You know I tried my best to go
      E B           A                                   A  A/G#
And I know you cried 'cause I hurt you so
F#m                                  E
It should have been easy to say that we were through
         F#m                                           B
But to walk away from love that way was more than we could do
         E  B            A
It was almost goodbye
E   B             A
Almost goodbye, no, I couldn't say it was
E   B             A
Almost goodbye, oh oh
E   B             A
Almost goodbye     (fade)
