Intro:

G+G (Cadd9Cadd9)

Verse:

 G+G
I love you
     Cadd9Cadd9 G+G   D MajorD (Dsus4Dsus4)
From the bottom of my heart
  A minorAm        E minorEm
And that's not gonna' change
        C majorC
But things look grim
     C majorC    D MajorD     G+G
When I am watching you watch him


 G+G
I give you
      Cadd9Cadd9  G+G    D MajorD (Dsus4Dsus4)
The best a man can hope to give
  A minorAm       E minorEm
But I'm not feeling brave
      C majorC
Chances are slim
     C majorC    D MajorD     G+G
When I am watching you watch him


Chorus:

  E minorEm   C majorC    G6G6 (D/F#D/F#)
Oh, what is left to learn
       E minorEm   C majorC     G6G6 (D/F#D/F#)
When he would let you crash and burn
     E minorEm   C majorC
He never gives attention
  G6G6 D/F#D/F#  E minorEm
But you still yearn
        C majorC
Where do I fit in
     C majorC    D MajorD     G+G
When I am watching you watch him

Bridge:

C majorC              BB
  God only knows why I still wait around
E minorEm     D/F#D/F#     A7A7
  Except I hate to see you cry
C majorC
  And I need you
       D7D7
But there are things I cannot do


Verse:

   G+G
And I want you
     Cadd9Cadd9  G+G    D MajorD (Dsus4Dsus4)
When he's playing all his games
  A minorAm       E minorEm        C majorC
And it gets hard to tell whose the victim
     C majorC    D MajorD     G+G
When I am watching you watch him

Like a broken record plays
  A minorAm      E minorEm
But I'm a window pane
     C majorC
A augmentedA phantom limb
     C majorC    D MajorD     G+G
When I am watching you watch him
     C majorC    D MajorD     E minorEm
When I am watching you watch him

When I am watching you watch him
