Almost Goodbye Mark Chesnutt
Capo 1.
[Intro]
Bm A G (2x)
[Verse 1]
[Bm]There was rain on the [A]street last night
[G]We stood beneath the front door light
[Bm]And everything we [A]said we made [G]sure the neighbors heard
[Bm]You called me this,[A] I called you that
[G]Standing on the welcome mat
[Bm]Everything we [A]felt it all came [G]down to just one word[G/F#]
[Em]But you couldn't say it and I couldn't say it
[Cborus]
[D]You [A]know I tr[G]ied my best to go away
[D]I [A]know you cr[G]ied 'cause I hurt you so[G/F#]
[Em]It should have been easy to [D]say that we were through
But to [Em]walk away from love was [A]more than we could do
It was [G]al[A]most good[Bm]bye
[G]Al[A]most goodby[Bm]e
Bm A G (2x)
[Verse 2]
[Bm]Now there was sun through the [A]blinds this morning
[G]When I opened up my eyes
[Bm]Outside I could [A]hear a mocking[G]bird
[Bm]And I could feel your [A]heartbeat[G] as you laid there by my side
[Bm]I thought of how the [A]world could end with [G]just one word[G/F#]
[Em]But you didn't say it, and I didn't say it
[Cborus]
[D]You [A]know I [G]tried my best to go away
[D]I [A]know you [G]cried 'cause I hurt you so[G/F#]
[Em]It should have been easy to [D]say that we were through
But to [Em]walk away from love that way was [A]more than we could do
It was [G]al[A]most [Bm]goodbye
It was [G]al[A]most [Bm]goodbye
[Interlude]
Bm A G (2x)
[Bridge]
[Em]Sometimes the most important [A]words are the ones that you leave unspoken
[Cborus]
(Up one step)
[E]You [B]know I [A]tried my best to go away
[E]I [B]know you [A]cried 'cause I hurt you so[A/G#]
[F#m]It should have been easy to s[E]ay that we were through
But to [F#m]walk away from love that way was [B]more than we could do
It was [A]al[B]most[C#m] goodbye
[A]Al[B]most [C#m]goodbye, no, I couldn't say it was
[A]Al[B]most [C#m]goodbye, oh oh
[A]Al[B]most[E] goodbye.
