Intro:
D  D/F#  G  F#m  Bm  Bm/A  G  Asus4  A


Bm           G      A   
Last night I told a lie
D      F#m              G       A
When I told you I could say goodbye
Bm          G        A
Here in the light of day
C      C/B             G     A
What a crazy thing for me to say…


Chorus:
D      D/F#             G A
What I meant to say was I love you
D           D/F#          G A    
What’s been killing me is I hurt you
Bm     Bm/A          G
What I didn’t do was hold you
       A                 D    F#m  G  A 
When I saw the teardrops fall
D      D/F#                 G   A               
What I should have said was I’m sorry
D      D/F#                 G   A                 
What I should have said was forgive me
Bm     Bm/A             
What I meant to say was
G      A             D   D/F#  G  A  Bm  Bm/A  G  A
What I didn’t say at all


Last night I had a dream
You were really walking out on me
I woke up scared to death
Please forget about the things I said…


Chorus
