Chords

This song is from the album "Leave This Town" by Daughtry. Seeing no one has done it yet, I decided to give this one a go. **Played half-step down** INTRO {C#m - B - E - B} x2 VERSE 1
C#m   B      E
I woke up today

    B          C#m        B         E
Seeing all the stars that you have thrown

    B          C#m        B         E
Wounded by the same old shots you take

    B          C#m        B         E
It's easier to kick the wind that low
CHORUS
               A                     E
And I just thought that you should know

              B            F#                A
If I could only know why you'd been letting go

                   E                 B        
Then it's not too late to say it right this time

           D
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry

     A                 B
But that's not what I meant to say
{C#m - B - E - B} x2 VERSE 2
C#m        B       E
Strong enough to say

     B              C#m       B        E
That I don't wanna take the hard road now

        B         C#m      B      E
S-S-So typical of you to walk away

          B              C#m      B         E
When your perfect little world is burning down
CHORUS
              A                     E
And I just thought that you should know

              B                F#                  A 
That I'd been holding on while you'd been letting go

              E
Can I be so bold

                  B               F#                A     
'Cause all this talking all to you's just getting old

                   E               B
Then it's not too late to say it right this time

          D
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry

      A                B
But that's not what I meant to say
{C#m - B - E - B - C#m - B - F#} BRIDGE Ah,
A                       E
What I really meant to say

      B                     F#
With every little breath I take

             A                    E
I'm not the only one who makes mistakes

               D                 B     
Just think of all the ones you made
CHORUS
              A                     E
And I just thought that you should know

              B                F#                  A 
That I'd been holding on while you'd been letting go

              E
Can I be so bold

                  B               F#                A     
'Cause all this talking all to you's just getting old

                   E               B
Then it's not too late to say it right this time

          D
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry

      A                B             A  E
But that's not what I meant to say

                     B   F# A
Not what I meant to say

             E     
Can I be so bold

                   B             F#                 A
'Cause all this talking all to you's just getting old

                    E               B
Well, it's not too late to say it right this time

          D
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry

     A                  B          C#m    
But that's not what I meant to say
