Verse 
                    E 
Somethings you understand 
                     B 
Somethings you never do 
                    E 
It's all out of our hands 
                    A 
And that's the only truth 
                   E 
I wonder where you are 
                    B 
I wonder where we'd been 
                             E 
If I could have changed your mind 
                                A 
And you were still in love with me 
                  E 
I could search forever 
                    D 
For all the reasons why 
                    A 
I couldn't make you need me 
                B 
No matter how I tried 

Chorus 
A   B    E 
God only knows 
                    B 
What hearts have to break 
                   C#m 
What tears have to fall 
            A 
Why we make mistakes 
   B          E 
So I'll go on faith 
              B 
And just walk away 
              C#m 
And maybe someday 
                  A 
I'll learn to let go 
B        E (A 2nd time) 
God only knows 

                E 
One minute at a time 
               B 
A little every day 
                E 
I start to recognize 
                     A 
The me that slipped away 
                      E 
Cause I got so lost inside you 
                D 
I almost lost myself 
              A 
Maybe someone knew 
                      B 
That I needed someone else 

                        E 
Why we do the things we do 
                     D 
The roads we have to take 
                  B 
The changes we go through
