Lyrics

[Verse 1]

[F]

You left your boots by the door

Like you might come back for them

I still hear your coffee cup

Settin’ down on the sink again

We both stood there sayin’ “wait”

Like that could change the tide

[M]

I had two roads in my hands

And you were on the losing side

One was duty, one was you

And I split my heart in two

[Pre-Chorus]

[F]

Nobody wanted this goodbye

Nobody said it loud

We kept on tryin’ to hold on

Till it slipped right through our hands somehow

[M]

And I see it in your eyes

I was the one who lit the fire

[Chorus]

[F]

Nobody wanted this

But you chose and it broke us

It broke us

[M]

I hurt you, I know I did

For one thing I loved

I lost what I lived for

[Verse 2]

[M]

My name still on your number

Your keys still in the bowl

I pass your mama’s white house

And I feel it in my bones

You said “pick one, then pick one”

Like I could make that clean

[F]

You don’t get to call it fate

When you’re the storm between

What you kept and what you threw

Baby, that was you

[Pre-Chorus]

[M]

Nobody wanted this goodbye

It sat right on our tongue

We kept on sayin’ “one more day”

Till the last good day was done

[F]

And I see it in your face

You weren’t there when I fell away

[Chorus]

[F]

Nobody wanted this

But you chose and it broke us

It broke us

[M]

I hurt you, I know I did

For one thing I loved

I lost what I lived for

[Bridge]

[F]

So don’t tell me it was easy

Don’t call it some old song

You held two truths too close

And still got both of them wrong

[M]

If I could take back that hour

I’d trade it for a lifetime

But I can’t unmake the hurt

Or bring back what was mine

[Final Chorus]

[F]

Nobody wanted this

But you chose and it broke us

It broke us

[M]

I hurt you, I know I did

For one thing I loved

I lost what I lived for

[F]

Nobody wanted this

Still I loved you hard

Till the last door closed
