[Intro 1]
[C][Dm][C][G]

[Verse 1]
I'm on[C]ly one step ahead [Dm]of heartbreak
[C]One step ahead of mi [Em]sery[A]
[Dm]One step is all I have[Em] to take
[Am]Backwards, to be the [Dm]same old fool for you
I used to [G]be

[Verse 2]
I'm on[C]ly one step ahead [Dm]of your arms
[C]One kiss away from you[Em]r swe[A]et lips
[Dm]I know I can't afford [Em]to stop
for one [Am]moment
'Cause I'm just [Dm]out of reach of your fingertips
[G]

[Bridge 1]
[C]Your warm breath on [Am]my shoulder
[C]Keeps remin[Am]d- ing me
That it's [Dm]too soon to forget you
It's [B]too late to be [Em]free,[B]
can't you [Dm]see?[G]

[Verse 3]
I'm on[C]ly one step ahe[Dm]ad of your love
[C]I try and yet I c[Em]an't take t[A]wo
[Dm]Seems like I'll have to take[Em] that one
[Am]step backwards

[Outro 1]
'Cause [Dm]one step ahead is a step too far away
[G]fro[C]m you[Am]
[Repeat and fade]
