[Verse]

             
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

[Verse]

             
Let him know t

Cause after al

             
l you do know 

        
best
             
Try to slip pa

/           
st his defence
             
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

[Chorus]

             
Where did I go

[Verse]

             
As he begins t

          
o raise his vo

ice
            
You lower your

             
s and grant hi

        
m one last cho

ice
             
Drive until yo

/

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
