[Chorus]
                               Em
Was it the trick of the light?
                       G
Or a shot in the dark?
                         D                       C
Was it hell or high water that broke our hearts?
                          Em
Was it something I said?
                               G
Or just a cruel twist of fate?
                         D                    C
Was it hell or high water and is it too late?
    C
Oh, is it too late?

[Instrumental]
Em G D C

[Verse 1]
Em
Man, all my life I've been
G                         D                          C
Searching for someone, to show me how it feels to be loved
C
And how to love somebody back

[Pre-Chorus]
Em                              G
And after stumbling through the years
                               D                           C
I thought I found you, just to see you fading out into the night

[Chorus]
                               Em
Was it the trick of the light?
                       G
Or a shot in the dark?
                         D                       C
Was it hell or high water that broke our hearts?
                          Em
Was it something I said?
                               G
Or just a cruel twist of fate?
                         D                    C
Was it hell or high water and is it too late?
    C
Oh, is it too late?

[Verse 2]
Em
See, all my life I've been
G
Silently reaching for
  D                               C
A hand to hold to warm the colder sparkle lights
   C
To guide me through, alright?

[Pre-Chorus]
Em                              G
And after stumbling through the years
                               D                           C
I thought I found you, just to see you fading out into the night

[Chorus]
                               Em
Was it the trick of the light?
                       G
Or a shot in the dark?
                         D                       C
Was it hell or high water that broke our hearts?
                          Em
Was it something I said?
                               G
Or just a cruel twist of fate?
                         D                    C
Was it hell or high water and is it too late?

[Interlude]
Em G
    Hey, hey
D C
   Hey, hey
Em G
    Hey, hey
D C
   Hey, hey

[Bridge]
                           Em
Was it a knife in my back?
                       G
Or a fork in the road?
                         D                    C
Was it hell or high water that left us alone?
                        Em
Is it really game over?
                        G
Is it really checkmate?
                         D                    C
Was it hell or high water and is it too late?
    C
Oh, is it too late?
Em G D C
Em G D C

[Outro]
                               Em
Was it the trick of the light?
                       G
Or a shot in the dark?
                         D                       C
Was it hell or high water that broke our hearts?
