Both Sides Of Goodbye by Ray Price
C F
When you pack your clothes tonight don't pack up all the blame
G7 C
Your not the first to walk away and leave someone in pain
F
I know how much it's hurting you hurting me this way
D7 G7
Believe me I've been in your shoes and I know you can't stay
C F
I've been on both sides of goodbye
G7 C
And I know there ain't no easy side
F
I've loved and I've been loved but not at the same time
G7 C
I've been on both sides of goodbye
F
Don't feel so bad for doing what you have to do
G7 C
You can't make your heart love me if it doesn't want to
F
When love doesn't go both ways and someone's got to go
D7 G7
So close that door and don't look back believe me I know
C F
I've been on both sides of goodbye
G7 C
And I know there ain't no easy side
F
I've loved and I've been loved but not at the same time
G7 C
I've been on both sides of goodbye
