Verse 1:
[D] If you're reading this then I'm long [D/C#]gone
Wish I'd had the strength to prove you [Bm]wrong
But instead I broke your [Bm/A]heart of [G]glass
Some things I guess you can't get
[D]Back when we started, before the storm came
[D/C#]I gave you "sometimes", you needed "always"
[Bm]Thought we were fine, but you saw it [Bm/A]first
[G]Now I can give you the life you deserve
Chorus 1:
So [D]goodbye, love
Hang onto the [Asus4]long night[A]
There's beauty in the [Bm]sunrise
And [G]you will find that [D]goodbye
Is the hardest thing that [A]I could do
After all the pain I [Bm]put you throu[G]gh
It's the best that I can [D]give
The best that I can [A]give to you[D]
Verse 2:
[D] It's so hard to see it come to [D/C#]this
When the truth is blinded by the [Bm]wish
Instead of bending, I just [Bm/A]watched you [G]break
And now it's too late
[D]Back when we started, before the storm came
[D/C#]I gave you "sometimes", you needed "always"
[Bm]Thought we were fine, but you saw it [Bm/A]first
[G]Now I can [A]give you the [Bm]life you [A7]deserve
Chorus 2:
So [D]goodbye, love
Hang onto the [A]long night
There's beauty in the [Bm]sunrise
And [G]you will find that [D]goodbye

After all the pain I [Bm]put you throu[G]gh
It's the best that I can [D]give
The best that I can [A]give to yooo[D]ooou
Bridge:
[Bm] Ooo[G]ooooooh
[Bm]We'll always have this after the bro[Bm/A]ken
[G]All that was given is not forgotte[A]n
