Em D
I’m one step from a breakdown
Cadd9
Two steps from being saved
Em
Just try to see this through
Em D
Three steps from this nightmare
Cadd9
And four steps from the door
Em Cadd9
The rest is up to you
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/staind/pardon_me_tab_ver_2.html ]
A#5 Em D Cadd9
Pardon me while I just turn my back and walk away
A#5 Em D Cadd9
Pardon me if I can’t listen to the things you say
A#5 Em D Cadd9
Pardon me if I can’t fake it while you still believe
A#5
Pardon me
Em D
I’m one step from forgiveness
Cadd9
And two steps from my grave.
Em
We’re all just passing through
D
Three steps from redemption
Cadd9
Four from the devil’s door
Em Cadd9
On a path that leads to you
A#5 Em D Cadd9
Pardon me while I just turn my back and walk away
A#5 Em D Cadd9
Pardon me if I can’t listen to the things you say

Pardon me
A#5 Em D Cadd9
Pardon me while I just turn my back and walk away

Pardon me
Em D
I’m two steps from salvation
Cadd9
But I’m only taking one
A#5 (You end on Em)
Pardon me
