  AThis time I almost made it, F#mcame so close to Bsaying no
I Ealmost found the E7words to make you Ago
This time I almost made it, almost pushed you away
But my heart cried out begging you to stay
       A               DD\            C#D\          B  
Now I'm laying here beside you cryin' softly
        D\               A  C#m  
Cause I know you're going home to her
Cause you beBmlong to her and you go hAome to her
I know you still away, I know there'll be another day
That you'll come back again
And you'll say hello friend and I'll reach out my hand
AThis time I almost made it, tEhis time I almost mAade it
