[Verse 1]
Step one you s
ay we need to
talk
He walks you s
ay sit down it
’s just a talk
He smiles poli
/
tely back at y
ou
You stare poli
/
tely right on
through
Some sort of w
indow to your
right
As he goes lef
#
t and you stay
right
Between the li
nes of fear an
d blame
And you begin
to wonder why
you came
[Chorus]
Where did I go
wrong, I lost
a friend
Somewhere alon
g in the bitte
rness
And I would ha
ve stayed up w
ith you all ni
ght
Had I known ho
w to save a li
(
fe
[Verse 2]
Let him know t
hat you know b
est
Cause after al
l you do know
best
Try to slip pa
st his defense
Without granti
ng innocence
Lay down a lis
#
t of what is w
rong
The things you
#
’ve told him a
ll along
And pray to Go
d he hears you
And pray to Go
d he hears you
[Chorus]
Where did I go
wrong, I lost
a friend
Somewhere alon
g in the bitte
rness
And I would ha
ve stayed up w
ith you all ni
ght
Had I known ho
w to save a li
(
fe
[Verse 3]
As he begins t
o raise his vo
ice
You lower your
s and grant hi
m one last cho
ice
Drive until yo
u lose the roa
d
Or break with
the ones you’v
e followed
He will do one
of two things
He will admit
to everything
Or he’ll say h
e’s just not t
he same
And you’ll beg
in to wonder w
hy you came
[Chorus]
Where did I go
wrong, I lost
a friend
Somewhere alon
g in the bitte
rness
And I would ha
ve stayed up w
ith you all ni
ght
Had I known ho
w to save a li
fe

Where did I go
