Em G D Cadd9
Am*
Was it the trick of the light?
C*
Or a shot in the dark?
G* F*
Was it hell or high water that broke our hearts?
Am*
Was it something I said?
C*
Or just a cruel twist of fate?
G* F*
Was it hell or high water and is it too late?
Am C G F
[Verse 1]
Am C
Well, all my life I've been
G F
Searching for someone, to show me how it feels to be loved
Am
And how to love somebody back
And after stumbling through the years
C G F
I thought I found you, just to see you fading out into the night
[Chorus]
Am
Was it the trick of the light?
C
Or a shot in the dark?
G F
Was it hell or high water that broke our hearts?
Am
Was it something you said?
C
Or just a cruel twist of fate?
G F
Was it hell or high water and is it too late?
[Verse 2]
Am C
See, all my life I've been
Silently reaching for
G F
A hand to hold to warm the cold, a spark of light
Am
To guide me through alright
And after stumbling through the years
C G F
I thought I found you, just to see you fading out into the night
[Chorus]
Am
Was it the trick of the light?
C
Or a shot in the dark?
G F
Was it hell or high water that broke our hearts?
Am
Was it something we did?
C
Or just a cruel twist of fate?
G F
Was it hell or high water and is it too late?
Am C G F
Hey, hey
Am C G F
Hey, hey
[Chorus]
Am
Was it a knife in my back?
C
Or a fork in the road?
G F
Was it hell or high water that left us alone?
Am
Is it really game over?
C
Is it really checkmate?
G F
Was it hell or high water and is it too late?
Am
Oh, is it too late?
C G F
Am C G F
[Outro]
Am
Was it the trick of the light?
C
Or a shot in the dark?
G F
