Tom: Em
G C G
Goodbye to the old ways
C G D
The old ways are gone
G C G
I’m waiting for daybreak
Em D G
And the morning light to come
[Instrumental]
G G C G
C G D D
G G C G
Em D G
[Verse 1]
C G
I can still feel your arms wrapped around me
C G
But I’m scared ‘cause I’m not sure you know
Em Bm C
That what happens this fast is not destined to last
C D G
Now I’m leaving, I’m ready to go
[Verse 2]
C G
You don’t need me, I’ll just disappoint you
C G
Yeah I’m sure you’ll be fine on your own
Em Bm C
Even better in fact, I am quite sure of that
C D G
‘Cause I’m leaving but I’m not going home
[Pre-chorus]
Bm Em G
Wasn’t it nice to know the truth?
Bm Em C G
Wasn’t it nice to know how well I treated you?
C Em D
When you wanted to wave
[Chorus]
G C G
Goodbye to the old ways
C G D
The old ways are gone
G C G
I’m waiting for daybreak
Em D G
And the morning light to come
[Instrumental]
G G C G
C G D D
G G C G
Em D G
[Verse 3]
C G
Everyone in the front row is singing
C G
With their hands held over their hearts
Em Bm C
And that sweet melody wraps itself around me
C D G
And it’s nice but we know it’s not ours
[Verse 4]
C G
And I’m trying to be a good person
C G
But I don’t think that trying’s enough
Em Bm C
When I’m drunk by myself and I miss you like hell
C D G
Well I guess that without you I’m stuck
[Pre-chorus]
Bm Em G
Wasn’t it nice to know the truth?
Bm Em C G
Wasn’t it nice to know how well I treated you?
C Em D
When you wanted to wave
[Chorus]
G C G
Goodbye to the old ways
C G D
The old ways are gone
G C G
I’m waiting for daybreak
Em D G
And the morning light to come
[Instrumental]
G G C G

G G C G
Em D G
[Bridge]
Bm Em G
Damn did it hurt to know the truth
Bm Em C
If I could take back what I know of
Bm Em G
Those things that she did to you
C Em D
Yeah you know I would wave
[Chorus]
(acapella)
G C G
Goodbye to the old ways
C G D
The old ways are gone
G C G
I’m waiting for daybreak
Em D G
And the morning light to come
[Chorus B]
G C G
Hello sunshine
C G D
Where have you been for so long?
G C G
I miss you sometimes
Em D G
I don’t know where you go when you’re gone
[Outro]
C D G
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know.
