The Ones We Once Loved Chords

Capo: 3rd fret

[Verse 1]
Em        Am           Dm             G
  Saw you singing your song the other day
Em            Am                   Dm               G
  It's been a long time since your eyes lit up that way
Em           Am                Dm            
  I felt the guilt build up as I looked back 
    G
how things went wrong
Em              Am           Dm
  Did I have to sweep in and scar you?
Em     Am                   Dm              G
  Five years, we shared the bittersweetness of our youth
Em              Am              Dm    
  Then we broke up, because sometimes 
          G
it is the best thing to do
Em            Am                   Dm        G
  Did it ever cross your mind that maybe you hurt me too?
Em            Am         Dm
  But I'm not taking it against you
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
F
Since the beginning
        G
I nevеr wanted anything
       Em
But to see you reach your dreams
            Am
I knеw that you just wanted me
          Dm
But I had dreams of my own
           G
And I just couldn't let them go
 
 
[Chorus]
      C                    Em
So I apologize, for coming into your life
        Am
Just to break your heart in pieces
         F
And then leave you in the night
C                   Em
 I tried my best to stay by your side
        Am
But who knew the rolling seasons
        F
Would reveal that sometimes
          Em7             Am
We aren't meant to be the one
   F              G                  C
So goodbye to the ones we once loved
 
 
[Verse 2]
Em           Am        Dm           G
  Things got heavy and you expected more from me
Em           Am           Dm             G
  I tried to be there, to take away your tears
Em             Am          Dm              G   
  But I didn't notice that I was chipping away 
       Em        Am
pieces of myself
               Dm
'Til there was nothing left to give
         G
I didn't even wanna live
 
 
[Chorus]
      C                    Em
So I apologize, for coming into your life
        Am
Just to break your heart in pieces
         F
And then leave you in the night
C                   Em
 I tried my best to stay by your side
        Am
But who knew the rolling seasons
        F
Would reveal that sometimes
          Em7             Am
We aren't meant to be the one
   F              G
So goodbye to the ones we once loved
 
 
[Bridge]
Am                     E7
  I realized it wasn't anyone's fault at all
               Am                          
It's just that I wasn't built to build you 
Dm7
up when you fall
F
Maybe we were meant to be a lesson to each other
      G
But I wish you well
        G
And I'm sorry
 
 
[Chorus]
       D                    F#m
Oh, I apologize, for coming into your life
        Bm
Just to break your heart in pieces
         G
And then leave you in the night
D                   F#m
 I tried my best to stay by your side
        Bm               A
But who knew the rolling seasons
        G
Would reveal that sometimes
          Em              Bm
We aren't meant to be the one
   G              A
So goodbye to the one
 
 
[Outro]
         Em              Bm
I wasn't meant to be the one
       G          A                  D
So goodbye to the ones we once loved
