What Once Was

 [Verse 1]

G#m                                    D#m

I guess I knew this would happen to you

Db                 G#m                      D#m

Inside I did, but I refused to know the truth

Db                 G#m                      D#m

I'm heading back inside to sit along with you

Db                    G#m

I think I know what's wrong



G#m                                D#m

My friends put on their bravest face

Db                           G#m

Their tails between their legs

                       D#m

Something's out of place

Db                               G#m

I bet their mothers let them know

                    D#m

What I'm about to face

Db                      G#m

Keep your mouth zipped, son





[Chorus]

B                         F#

Baby I've been there before

              D#m                      G#m   Db     B

I was at the point where all I really wanted was someone

                         F#

And now I'm still hanging on

              D#m              G#m

I was at the end of every tether waiting

Db             G#m

For what once was



D#m  Db



G#m D#m Db





[Verse 2]

G#m                           D#m

Tell me all the important stuff

Db                    G#m

What's your favorite color

                    D#m

What makes you so tough?

Db             G#m                          D#m

Please don't let go when you've had enough

Db           G#m

I'm on my knees



[Chorus]

B                         F#

Baby I've been there before

              D#m                      G#m   Db     B

I was at the point where all I really wanted was someone

                         F#

And now I'm still hanging on

              D#m              G#m

I was at the end of every tether waiting

Db             G#m

For what once was
