symbol and Cm becomes a Bm    n.c. means play no chord

          SOMETIMES GOODBYE   Terri Clark 

INTRO CHORDS:  D#  A# G# G#

             D#                           A#
I've got an ice cold cup of coffee And a paper I haven't read
    Cm                       G# 
A canyon in my heart And a hammer in my head
        D#                     A#                     Cm 
And a waitress with an empty stare That looks right through me
      D#                             A#
I'm sitting at this table And I'm balancing the salt
  Cm                                 G# 
Weighing out my choices Baby, It's nobody's fault
         D#                A#           Cm    
And I'm torn up by these voices Talking to me
          A#   
You say there's no good reason For me to walk away
                G#                                       
You say there's so much good between us Who would'nt wanna stay
     A#                                             G#   
But how can I be with you If deep down I believe I lose a part of me

CHORUS:
D#    A#    G#  D#          Cm        G#  
Some-times good-bye is the only open door
D#  A#    G#  D#          Cm                     A#    
I can't turn back when I know there's something more
    G#       n.c.                       1.) D# A# G# G#  D# A# G# G#
I gotta find what my heart beats for    2.) to interlude



            D#                            A#
I've got a half a page of reasons And a napkin full of tears
       Cm                                  G#  
From trying to pull my spirit Through the pocket of my fears
         D#                A#            Cm  
As the lunch crowd empties out Into the city
          D#                          A#      
And there may not be a way for me To make you understand
            Cm                                  G#  
I'll write down the words I'm feeling And I'll leave it in your hands
           D#            A#              Cm     
But the memories of our love I'm taking with me
                A#  
You say there's no good reason For me to walk away
               G#
You say we're meant to be together And I'm making a mistake
            A#                                                  G#
But this emptiness inside me Has brought me to this road and I have to let you go

to chorus using 2.)
INTERLUDE:
Cm                G#         Cm          A#  
For the passion everlasting For deepest dream
Cm               G#                  Cm            A#  
For a chance to love like that There is no in be-tween

to chorus, to ending
ENDING: Vamp on  D# A# G# G# (listen to recording for timing)
I gotta find what my heart beats for (sometimes goodbye)
What my heart beats for (sometimes goodbye)
