Intro:

B minorBm B minorBm


Verse 1:

B minorBm                 D MajorD
  I said I’m gonna spend my time alone
           G+G          D MajorD      F#F#
Cause it ain’t worth trying to find that lover’s soul
B minorBm                  D MajorD
  I said it’s better searching in myself
            G+G
Cause I couldn’t give away my love,
           G minorGm
Or spend my time with anybody else
      A augmentedA           A7A7
But oh, sometimes I believe I can make the change,
F#F#         F#7F#7
  Oh Lord, are you feeling the same way

Verse 2:

B minorBm                  D MajorD
  I said I better change my sinking thoughts
          G+G         D MajorD          F#F#
Before they pull me under to drown out everything I’ve got
B minorBm               D MajorD
  And yet I find comfort in despair
             G+G
Cause I’ve wallowed in it far too long, when things go wrong
  G minorGm
It feels good not to care
      A augmentedA           A7A7
And oh, sometimes I believe I can make the change
F#F#          F#7F#7
  Good God, are you feeling the same way


Chorus:

D MajorD              A augmentedA           B minorBm
  Cause I would do it for her, if she’d do it for me
      G+G    A augmentedA    D MajorD
If this is where we ought to be
       A augmentedA        B minorBm
I am only a man, my sins of pride
        G+G    F#F#    B minorBm
are swallowed down here by your side

Verse 3:

                   D MajorD
Instead I’m gonna praise my stubborn heart
         G+G          D MajorD         F#F#
But I feel like dying, and I know I’m only at the start
B minorBm               D MajorD
  And as the days go passing by
          G+G
Well that window begins to close, and so it shows
   G minorGm
When months turn into years, well I try
  A augmentedA          A7A7
And oh, I believe I can make the change
F#F#          F#7F#7
  Good God, are you feeling the same way


Final Chorus:

D MajorD           A augmentedA            B minorBm
  I would do it for her, if she’d do it for me
      G+G    A augmentedA    D MajorD
If this is where we ought to be
       A augmentedA        B minorBm
I am only a man, my sins of pride
        G+G    F#F#    D MajorD
are swallowed down here by your side
       A augmentedA        B minorBm
If all should fail, so often does
      G+G     A augmentedA    D MajorD
Of lack of passion and lack of trust
           A augmentedA           B minorBm
But I would do it for her if she’d do it for me
      G+G    F#F#    B minorBm
If this is where we ought to be.


Ending:

B minorBm Bm B minorBm
