Tuning : Half a Step down (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)


This is my first tab and I assure you it is 100% correct.
I dont know the correct names for the chords so this is just help when reading this tab.
Chris uses a mixture of bar and power chords in this song and some chords are 
quite hard to get first time so just stick with it.

Intro:  


Verse 1:

                           
She said, "I've got to be honest,
                                                      
You're wasting your time if you're fishin' around here."
                              
And I said, "You must be mistaken,
                                    
I'm not foolin', this feelin' is real."
                              
She said, "You've gotta be crazy!
                                         
What do you take me for? Some kinda of easy mark?"

"You've got wits,
 
You've got looks,
 
You've got passion,
                                
But I swear that you've got me all wrong."


All wrong
AmV
All wrong
         
But you've got me

............................................................................

BRIDGE:

                                          AmV
I'll be true, I'll be useful, I'll be cavalier,
AmV              
I'll be yours my dear
            
And I'll belong to you 
             
If you just let me through

...........................................................................

CHORUS:

        Cadd2/                    
This is easy as lovers go.
                    -  
So don't complicate it by hesitating.
         Cadd2/      Am7O
This is wonderful as loving goes.
        
This is tailor made,
          
What's the sense in waiting?

VERSE 2:

(hold)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I said, "I've got to be honest,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've been waiting for you all of my life."
                             
For so long I thought I was asylum bound,
                                     
But just seeing you makes me think twice.
                                 
And being with you here makes me sane.
                                        
I fear I'll go crazy if you leave my side.

"You've got wits,
                
You've got looks,
             
You've got passion,
                                                
But are you brave enough to leave with me tonight?"


Tonight
AmV
Tonight
          
You've got me

............................................................................

BRIDGE:


                                          AmV

AmV              
I'll be yours my dear
            
And I'll belong to you 
             
If you just let me through
