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?
               Em
Oh, is it too late?

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

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

Chorus

See, all my life I've been silently reaching for
A hand to hold to warm the cold, spark a light
To guide me through alright
And after stumbling through the years
I thought I found you, just to
See you fading out into the night

Chorus:
Was it the trick of the light?
Or a shot in the dark?
Was it hell or high water that broke our hearts?
Was it something we did?
Or just a cruel twist of fate?
Was it hell or high water and is it too late?

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

Was it the trick of the light?
Or a shot in the dark?
Was it hell or high water that broke our hearts?
