SONG:



F#m                     C#m  F#m 

Here we are face to face



F#m                          C#m  F#m

With the memories that can’t be erased



F#m                      C#m  F#m

Al ~ though we need each other



G#m                  F#m              F#m

Things that changed,     it’s not the same







F#m                         C#m  F#m 

Sometimes it makes me wonder



F#m              C#m  F#m 

Where would I be, 



F#m           C#m  F#m 

if you hadn’t discovered         



G#m                 F#m 

Which I did, inside of me I know there was something, that we could compare





C#m

Oh, well, i,



F#m                                C#m

1-never meant to cause you no pain      I just 



F#m                           C#m

wanna go back to being the same   Well i, 



F#m                    G#m

only wanna make things right



F#m:224422   F#m:222222         F#m: 224442

Before you   walk out of my    life





Remembering the good times

From a portrait hung on high

It’s filled with so much color

And the laughter we left behind

I made the choice and you couldn’t decide

I made the choice, I was wrong you were right

Deep down inside, I apologize

(rpt 1)



Though I made plans with you

To always have time for you

(before you walk out of my life)

I guess it’s true, cannot live without you

Don’t ever go away, ooh oh yeah

(rpt 1, 1)



Before you walk out of my life
