[Gm] [Dm] [F]
[Dm] [Gm] [Ab] [Bb]
[F] [Bb] Once before I go, [Dm] I want you to know [D] that I would do it [G] all.
[F] [B] I'm [Eb] sure we'd make the same [Cm] mistakes, [Eb] but we could make it through the pains and joys
and [F] aches we [Eb] [Bb] knew back then.
[Eb] I would do it [Gm] all.
[Eb] I'd do it all [Bb] again.
Before I go, [F] I want you to know [Fm] that I look back [G] with no regrets.
[Cm] And when our luck was wearing thin, [Eb] and we were down and out, we still came back to [F] win
[Eb] [Bb] against our best.
[Gm] Now when [Cm] I look [Bb] back, [Eb] I still have no [Bb] regrets.
[Eb] And it's so hard [Bb] to say goodbye when there's so much that's [Am] left unspoken in your eyes.
[Ebm] [D] But [Gm] unless I [D] spread my [Gm] wings [Dm] again, I'm [Gm] afraid I'll [Gbm] never [Gm] soar.
So [F] hang on to the [Ab] memories [Cm] and hold me close once [F] more.
[G] Once [F] more, [Bb] just once.
Before I go, [F]
I want you to know [Fm] that I have loved you [G] all [F] along.
[G] And [Cm] even when we're far apart, I only need to feel you're living [Eb] in my heart.
[F] And [Eb] [Bb] I'll be strong.
[Gm] Love you [Cm] just the [Gm] way [Cm] I've loved you [Bb] all along.
