(This is the original key)

A#                    F/A    
Step one you say we need to talk 
    Gm                 F        F/A    A# 
He walks you say sit down it?s just a talk 
             F/A           Gm 
He smiles politely back at you 
             F       F/A      A# 
You stare politely right on through 
               F/A          Gm 
Some sort of window to your right 
             F       F/A      A# 
As he goes left and you stay right 
              F/A             Gm 
Between the lines of fear and blame 
                   F     F/A        
And you begin to wonder why you came 
 

  D#             F                Gm 
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend 
            A#             F/A 
Somewhere along in the bitterness 
    D#                   F                Gm 
And I would have stayed up with you all night 
             A#             F/A 
Had I known how to save a life
