Candlebox – Far Behind        ( Album: Candlebox (1993) )

G    | Em    | D    | C               (repeat chords for whole song)

Now maybe I didn’t mean to treat you bad, But I did it anyway
And not maybe, Some would say your life was sad, But you lived it anyway

And now maybe, Your friends they stand beside they watch you crumble,
          As you falter to the ground
And now maybe, Your friends they stand beside as you were flying,
          Oh you were flying oh so high
But then some day people look at you for what they call their own, They watch you suffer
Yeah they hear you calling home, But then some day we could take our time
To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us
But you left me far behind

C:      Now maybe I didn’t mean to treat you oh so bad, But I did it anyway
          Now maybe some would say you’re left with what you had
          But you couldn’t share the pain
          No, no, no
          Couldn’t share the pain they watch you suffer

Now maybe, I could have made my own mistakes, But I live with what I’ve known
Yes maybe, we might share in something great
But won’t you look at where we’ve grown,  Won’t you look at where we’ve gone

But then someday comes tomorrow holds a sense of what I fear for you in my mind
          As you trip the final line
And that cold day when you lost control
Shame you left my life, So soon you should have told me
But you left me far behind
[chorus]

No, no, no
Now maybe I didn’t mean to treat you oh so bad,  But I did it anyway
No maybe some would say you’re left with what you had,   But you couldn’t share the pain

I said times have changed your friends
They come and watch you crumble to the ground,   They watch you suffer
Yeah they hold you down,  Hold you down
Maybe brother maybe love I didn’t mean to treat you bad
But you left me far behind,    Left me far behind,  Left me far ….behind
