One Step Further - Bardo (Words and Music by Simon Jeffries)
E|------------------------------------------------------------|


Notes - If the two key changes at the end of the song are too hard to play then you can use a Capo 2nd then
4th & continue playing the same patterns as previous choruses. Oh, and yes they do sing "tooken" at the end.

[Intro]
E                                              B  E
One step further, And I would have been there

[Verse]
E
Can't seem to get your attention no matter how I try, I just want you to prefer me to the other guys
            A                      B                 G#m                 C#m   B
So when you looked at me, you only turned away, So I walked up beside you
          A                         E                       B
But I for-got all the things that I planned to say, I don't know if I tried to

[Chorus]
                   A        E              B               E
I could have taken one step further, And I would have been there
               A                  E            B
You could have turned around, And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
A        E             B       C#m
All this time I didn't get any-where
                   A        E              B               E
I could have taken one step further, And I would have been there


[Verse]
E
Ain't got the courage to speak when you're sometimes near,
E
Well I can't seem to think of the things that a girl likes to hear
            A                      B               G#m                 C#m   B
But when I saw you again, you were all alone, So I walked up beside you
          A               E                     B
But I was too shy to even ask you home, I don't know if I tried to

[Chorus]
                   A        E              B               E
I could have taken one step further, And I would have been there
               A                  E            B
You could have turned around, And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
A        E             B       C#m
All this time I didn't get any-where
                   A        E              B               E
I could have taken one step further, And I would have been there

[Bridge]
C#m                                           G#m                               F#
If you read my letters or my telegrams, You'd have got around to asking me just who I am
           B
'Cause you know I'm gonna get ya, I'm gonna get ya, I'm gonna get ya (Key change - F#)

[Chorus]
                   B        F#             C#              F#
