I never dreamed that it would be so easy,
   Ebm                             Db
to see you finally walk on out the door.
Db
But I'm tired of trying to make you smile,
Fm           Db             Ebm
livin' every day's a trial, tired of always
Fm                Gb             Ab
being the one who loved a little more.



CHORUS:
Ab     Gb              Fm
It was time for you to leave me, it was time,
       Bbm            Eb              Gb
it was time, when you really get down to
           Db
the bottom line.
Gbm              Fm
We never had the poetry, we just tried to make
   Bbm
it right.
       Eb                Ab           Db
It was time that we were over, it was time.

    Db     Gb                   Fm   Bbm
And now, I know the emptiness I feel.....it's more
    Ebm                         Db
for what we missed than what we had.
Gb                              Fm
Watchin' something dying so can hurt much more
     Bbm
than letting go.
Ebm           Fm                        Gb
Even with the loneliness you'd know I'm almost
Ab
there.

soul, just for company..it's better being lonely.
