[Chorus]
G              C   G
Goodbye to the old ways
    C   G        D
The old ways are gone
G               C  G
I’m waiting for daybreak
        Em      D        G
And the morning light to come

[Verse 1]
      C                             G
I can still feel your arms wrapped around me
        C                              G
But I’m scared ‘cause I’m not sure you know
          Em           Bm          C
That what happens this fast is not destined to last
        C            D        G
Now I’m leaving, I’m ready to go


[Verse 2]
          C                       G
You don’t need me, I’ll just disappoint you
         C                           G
Yeah I’m sure you’ll be fine on your own
     Em        Bm         C
Even better in fact, I am quite sure of that
           C               D         G
‘Cause I’m leaving but I’m not going home


[Pre-chorus]
Bm                   Em       G
   Wasn’t it nice to know the truth?
Bm                   Em       C              G
   Wasn’t it nice to know how well I treated you?
C        Em     D
When you wanted to wave


[Chorus]
G              C   G
Goodbye to the old ways
    C   G        D
The old ways are gone
G               C  G
I’m waiting for daybreak
        Em      D        G
And the morning light to come

[Verse 3]
     C                       G
Everyone in the front row is singing
           C                     G
With their hands held over their hearts
         Em           Bm      C
And that sweet melody wraps itself around me
         C           D             G
And it’s nice but we know it’s not ours


[Verse 4]
        C                   G
And I’m trying to be a good person
      C                         G
But I don’t think that trying’s enough
         Em         Bm         C
When I’m drunk by myself and I miss you like hell
       C              D           G
Well I guess that without you I’m stuck


[Pre-chorus]
Bm                   Em       G
   Wasn’t it nice to know the truth?
Bm                   Em       C              G
   Wasn’t it nice to know how well I treated you?
C        Em     D
When you wanted to wave


[Chorus]
G              C   G
Goodbye to the old ways
    C   G        D
The old ways are gone
G               C  G
I’m waiting for daybreak
        Em      D        G
And the morning light to come

[Bridge]
Bm                     Em       G
   Damn did it hurt to know the truth
Bm            Em             C
   If I could take back what I know of
Bm                   Em         G
   Those things that she did to you
C        Em     D
Yeah you know I would wave


[Chorus]

G              C   G
Goodbye to the old ways
    C   G        D
The old ways are gone
G               C  G
I’m waiting for daybreak
        Em      D        G
And the morning light to come


[Chorus B]
G     C  G
Hello sunshine
      C        G           D
Where have you been for so long?
G          C   G
I miss you sometimes
        Em             D              G
I don’t know where you go when you’re gone


[Outro]
        C             D             G
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know.
