Capo 1st Fret 
 
Intro:  D A G A D A G A 
 
Verse 1: 
 
            D 
I've got an ice-cold cup of coffee  
      A 
And a paper I havn't read  
  Bm  
A canyon in my heart  
      G 
And a hammer in my head  
       D                     A 
And a waitress with an empty stare  
                 Em          G 
That looks right through me  
    D 
I'm sitting at this table  
        A 
And I'm balancing the salt  
Bm  
Weighing out my choices  
      G 
Baby, It's nobodys fault  
        D                A 
And I'm torn up by these voices  
        Em      G 
Talking to me  
        A 
You say there's no good reason for me to walk away  
                G 
You say there's so much good between us who would'nt wanna to stay  
    A 
But how can I be with you if deep down I believe               
     G                   A 
I'll loose a part of me  
 
Chorus: 
 
D   A     G   D          Bm        Em     G 
Sometimes goodbye is the only open door  
D A     G    D           Bm                     F#m  
I can't turn back when I know there's something more  
  G          A                         D A G A D A G A 
I gotta find what my heart beats for  
 
Verse 2: 
 
           D 
I've got a half a page of reasons  
      A 
And a napkin full of tears  
     Bm  
From trying to pull my spirit  
            G 
Through the pocket of my fears  
       D                  A 
As the lunch croud emptys out  
         Em      G 
Into the city  
          D 
And there may not be a way for me  
   A 
To make you understand  
           Bm  
I'll write down the words I'm feeling  
         G 
And I'll leave it in your hands  
        D               A 
But the memories of our love  
           Em       G 
I'm taking with me  
        A 
You say there's no good reason for me to walk away  
              G 
You say we're meant to be together and I'm making a mistake  
         A 
But this emptiness inside me has brought me to this road  
      G                   A 
And I have to let you go  
 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
 
G 
For the passion everlasting  
F#m  
For deepest dream  
G 
For a chance to love like that  
      A 
There is no in between  
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
 
Outro (Over The "Sometimes goodbye" Part): D A G A D A G A etc... 
Then end on a D chord.
