[Verse 1]
Em          C           D
She came by, she didn't speak her mind
Bm        C     D
Just like many times before
Em          C           D
But I could tell by the look in her eyes
Bm                 C         D
I saw she couldn't take anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm C
     No turning back, I've got a feeling it's the last time
D
     Should I stay or surrender?

[Chorus]
         Em      C            D
When the love is gone and you cast away
              Em      C             D
You feel like hope is gone, will be back someday
         Em      C               D              Am     Bm C
When the love is gone and you're trying to understand
N.C.
Why the love is gone

[Verse 2]
Em   C        D
All alone for first time
Bm          C          D
She's been away, yeah, far to long
Em           C              D
I still have hope she would change her mind
Bm          C     D
I know that I was wrong

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Bm C
     No holding back, I was taking love for granted
D
   Now I know it's now or never

[Chorus 2]
         Em      C            D
When the love is gone and you cast away
              Em      C             D
You feel like hope is gone, will be back someday
         Em      C               D              Am     Bm C
When the love is gone and you're trying to understand

[Bridge]
C                           D
Someday, I might forget the way I feel today
Am                    Bm            C
   But this time, I'm ready for the change
              D                        Em C D Bm C D
I'm not gonna let it all fade away

you feel like hope is gone, will be back someday
