C#                          G#
I just don't want to waste another day
    A#m                       G#
I'm trying to make things right
         F#             G#
But you shove it in my face
    C#                                    G#
And all those things you've done to me I can't erase
      A#m               F#
And I can't keep this inside
      G#              C# F# A#m G#
It's time to say goodbye

        C#              F#
On the first day that I met you
            A#m            G#
I should've known to walk away
               C#                F#
I should have told you you were crazy
         A#m               G#
And disappeared without a trace
       C#                  F#
But instead I stood there waiting
       A#m             G#
Hoping you would come around
        C#             F#            G#
But you always find a way to let me down
                     F#
It's time to say goodbye

Chorus:
F#            C#             G#
I just don't want to waste another day
                     F#
It's time to say goodbye
              C#                G#
Cause things will never be the same
                     F#
It's time to say goodbye
             C#              G#
You make me think I need to walk away
                     F# C# G#
It's time to say goodbye
                     C# F# A#m G#
It's time to say goodbye

After all the things I've done for you
You never tried to do the same
It's like you always play the victim
And I'm the one you always blame
When you need someone to save you
When you think you're gonna drown
(Think you're gonna drown)
You just grab your arms around me and pull me down

Chorus:
F#            C#             G#
I just don't want to waste another day
                     F#
It's time to say goodbye
              C#                G#
Cause things will never be the same
                     F#
It's time to say goodbye
             C#              G#
You make me think I need to walk away
                     F# C# G#
It's time to say goodbye
                     A#m
It's time to say goodbye

A#m                      F#
Now I'm gone, it's too late
                       C#
You can't fix your mistakes
                 G#           A#m
I was trying to save you from you
                        F#
So you scream, so you cry
                        C#
I can see through your lies
                        G#
You're just trying to change me

Somewhere in the distance
There's a place for me to go
I don't want you to hate me
But I think you need to know
You're weighing on my shoulders
And I'm sick of feeling down
So I guess it's time for me to say goodbye
