A
Today I took my love away
D                       Bm
I swear I thought I heard
A
My own heart whispering
D                       Bm
its dying words

[Chorus]
A
Cause it's a hard line that you would take
E                       Bm
Take a lifetime to make it
A
Don't do it for mine, but for your own sake
D                       Bm
If you choose to take it

[Verse 2]

A
Today I let our love die
D                       Bm
I stood by it til its last sigh
A
Then disappeared from the scene of the crime
D                       Bm
Locked away and served my time


[Instrumental]

A E F#m D  (x2)

[Bridge]
A                       E
Cause in a great divide
F#m                     D
Where a line is drawn
A                       E
Oh you must decide
F#m                     D
which half you're standing on

[Verse 3] 
A
Today I met a new love
D                       Bm
How could I be sure
A
Whether it was ever true love
D                       Bm
That I had known before
