Intro 
G  G  D  D  D  C  C  G  G  D  Em 


 
Em                   G 
Tell me baby was it stormin' outside 
     C              G         D         Em 
Need any reason why I didn't chase you down 
                   D            G 
Did I think I was better on my own 
        C                     G         D           Em 
Didn't know that alone meant runnin' myself in the ground 

                          D 
I been trying to find the answer in the bottle 
         C                        G   D   Em7 
But the bottles only telling you lies 
                D 
'Cause I let a good love go 
       C               G 
And I don't even remember why 
 

 
 D         Em7 
Was it the wine in your glass 
      D 
Or a call that I missed 
        C 
Was it something I said 
    G           D 
Or something I didn't 

    Em7 
Why we say goodbye 
           D 
I've been running through my mind 
       C                      G  D    Em7 
But I can't seem to find the reasoo-o-on 
 

 
                    D 
Yeah what made you hate me 
                    C 
Yeah what drove me crazy 'cause lately 
    G          D     Em7 
The only thing on my mind 

                   D 
Is how all of the bad memories go 
         C                      G   D   Em7 
And you can't hold the good anymore 
          Em       D                      C 
And it's crazy how I thought ever losing you 
                         G 
Was something I could afford 
 

 
 D         Em7           Em 
Was it the wine in your glass 
      D 
Or a call that I missed 
        C 
Was it something I said 
    G           D 
Or something I didn't 

    Em7        Em 
Why we say goodbye 
           D 
I've been running through my mind 
       C                      G  D 
But I can't seem to find the reason 

           Em 
'Cause my heart's still yours 
         D 
But its breaking in two 
          C 
Yeah the fight that we had 
       G          D 
Was it me was it you 
       Em7 
Because I let you go 
Em   G 
But you didn't believe it 
    C]                     G  D  Em7
And I can't remember the reason-on

 D         Em7 
Was it the wine in your glass 
      D 
Or a call that I missed 
        C 
Was it something I said 
    G           D 
Or something I didn't 

    Em7 
Why we say goodbye 
           D 
I've been running through my mind 
     C                    G 
But still can't find the reason 
         Em 
Why I'm here in this bar 
            D 
Instead of laying there with you 
         C 
Why the someone I love 
         G         D 
Is just someone I knew 
              Em 
Can't give me any peace of mind 
           D 
'Cause I'm in hell tonight 
     C                   G  D  Em 
And still cant find the reason-on
