Key: GG | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 


Intro: G  C  D/F#  G    C  D/F#  G    C  D/F#  G  C    D   D/F#

           G                  D/F#
My world revolved around you
                 G             C       D    D/F#
Every word was a promise I was hanging on 
           G                  D/F#
Swept up inside a whirlwind
                G                C         D 
I just couldn't see the end 'til you were gone


    C                    D
Oh, I thought I would fall apart
     C                          D
With shattered dreams and a broken heart
C                   D
Scrabbling in the dark


Chorus:
             G                 Em
How was I to know that I'd be okay
                    C                    D 
Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away 
             G                    Em
How was I to know I would be this strong
              C          D 
I had what it takes all along
             G   C   D  G    C  D  G  D/F#
How was I to know___


           G             D/F#
What I was so afraid of 
              G             C     D      D/F#
Turned out to be my freedom in disguise
           G                 D/F#
Now I know what I'm made of 
              G                 C   D 
Guess it just took some time to realize


    C                    D
Oh, I was blind, I couldn't tell
    C                     D
Put too much faith in someone else 
  C            D
I gave up on myself 


Chorus:
             G                 Em
How was I to know that I'd be okay
                    C                    D 
Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away 
             G                    Em
How was I to know I would be this strong
              C          D 
I had what it takes all along
             G   C   D  G    C  D  G  D/F#

Chorus:

How was I to know that I'd be okay
N.C.                C   N.C.             D 
Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away 
             G                    Em
How was I to know I would be this strong
              C          D 
I had what it takes all along
