Verse
G
There's a silhouette
Bm
Falling from the sky
Em
See her there she goes
C D
And it's heaven-like
G
On the count of three
Bm
She would disappear
Em
Go up in a cloud of smoke
C D
So don't close your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
C G
A cold sweat when I woke up in the dead of night
D
So lost, Got me so lost
C
Can't understand why I kept running toward the bright lights
D
Oh-woah
[Chorus]
G
It was an ice cold winter of '98
Bm
For forever never felt so far away
Em
I sang a song and recorded it on video tape
D C
Thinking if only I could have back yesterday
G
It was the last slow dance on a Saturday night
Bm
No, the seconds didn't feel like they were passing by
Em
She saw me standing in the street in the car headlights
D C (n.c.)
With the words before I say goodbye
[Verse 2]
G
Streamers and balloons
Bm
Candles in the cake
Em
A spinning disco ball
C D
'Neath suburban skies
G
We went up the stairs
Bm
And walked down the hall
Em
Past your sister's room
C D
And I don't wanna close my eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
C G
A cold sweat when I woke up in the dead of night
D
So lost, Got me so lost
C
Can't understand why I kept running toward the bright lights
D
Oh-woah
[Chorus]

It was an ice cold winter of '98

With the words before I say goodbye

Say goodbye, say goodbye, say goodbye, goodbye
