Intro  C

C                                    Am
Wish time was standing still tonight
                             F           G
Wish I was standing by your side all of time
             C
Not for the last time

                   C
This can’t be goodbye
                   Am
How could I ever find
                     F                 G
The strength to let go, to be without you
                      C
This can’t be goodbye

C                            Am
Don’t wanna carry this inside
                            F             G
Don’t wanna to carry on despite how I’ve tried
                  C
To take this in my stride
C                            Am
No I don’t think I’ll be alright
                           F
No its not something I can hide
             G                C
And I won’t try, I don’t see why


                   C
This can’t be goodbye
                   Am
How could I ever find
                     F                 G
The strength to let go, to be without you
                      C
This can’t be goodbye

                  C
I can’t say goodbye
                  Am
Somehow I cannot find
                    F                  G
The strength to let go, to be without you
                   C
This can’t be goodbye

C                          Am
Why won’t this agony subside
                            F
Can’t fill this emptiness inside
G                C
Oh I’m so empty inside
                             Am
No I can’t ever make this right
                            F
No its not something I can fight
               G      C
I know I’ve tried

C
