Some sort of window to your right

As he goes left and you stay right
D Em
Between the lines of fear and blame
D
And you begin to wonder why you came

C D Em
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
G D
Somewhere along in the bitterness
C D Em
And I would have stayed up with you all night
G D
Had I known how to save a life
SECOND VERSE:
G D
Let him know that you know best
Em D G
Cause after all you do know best
D
Try to slip past his defense
Em D G
Without granting innocence

Lay down a list of what is wrong
D
The things you've told him all along
G D
And pray to God he hears you
Em D
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend

And I would have stayed up with you all night

Had I known how to save a life
THIRD VERSE:
G D Em D
G D
As he begins to raise his voice
Em D G
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
D
Drive until you lose the road
Em D G
Or break with the ones you've followed
D
He will do one of two things
Em D
He will admit to everything
G D
Or he'll say he's just not the same
Em D
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
