E F# G#m G#m7 (x3)
G#m
It’s been a while since the two of us talked
G#m7
About a week since the day you walked
E
Knowing things would never be the same
With your empty heart and mine full of pain
G#m G#m7
So explain to me, how it came to this
Take it back to the night we kissed
E
It was Dublin city on a Friday night
F# G#m7
You were vodkas and coke, I was Guinness all night
G#m
We were sitting with our backs against the world
E
Saying things that we thought but never heard
F#
Who would have thought it would end up like this?
G#m
Where everything we talked about is gone
G#m7 F#
And the only chance we have of moving on
Is try to take it back
E
Before it all went wrong
F# G#m
Before the worst, before we mend
G#m7
Before our hearts decide
E
It’s time to love again
F# G#m
Before too late, before too long
G#m7
Let’s try to take it back
G#m
Before it all went wrong
G#m
There was a time, that we’d stay up all night
G#m7
Best friends talking till the daylight
E
Took the joys alongside the pain
With not much to loose, but so much to gain
G#m G#m7
Are hearing me? Cause I don’t wanna miss,
Set you a drift on memory bliss
E
It was Grafton Street on a rainy night (ooh)
F# G#m7
I was down on one knee and you were mine for life
G#m
We were sitting with our backs against the world
E
Saying things that we thought but never heard
F#
Who would have thought it would end up like this?
G#m
Where everything we talked about is gone
G#m7 F#
And the only chance we have of moving on
Is try to take it back
E
Before it all went wrong
E F# G#m
Before the worst, before we mend
G#m7
Before our hearts decide
E
It’s time to love again
F# G#m
Before too late, before too long
G#m7
Let’s try to take it back
G#m
Before it all went wrong
E G#m
If the clouds don’t clear
F#
Then we’ll rise above it, we’ll rise above it whoa
E G#m
Heaven’s gate is so near
F#
Come walk with me through
Just like we use to, just like we use to yeah
E F# G#m G#m7
Yeah
E F#
F#
Let’s try to take it back
E
Before it all went wrong
E F# G#m
Before the worst, before we mend
G#m7
Before our hearts decide
E
It’s time to love again
F# G#m
Before too late, before too long
G#m7
Let’s try to take it back
G#m
Before it all went wrong (it all went wrong)
E F# G#m G#m7 (x2)
E F#
Let’s try to take it back
E
Before it all went wrong.
