Guitar 1 and 2 play simultaneously. Guitar 2's lead riffs could be played further up the
but by
playing them low they can be integrated into the chord progression as one guitar part.

VERSE 1:
   A5 N.C.            E5   E5 N.C.         D5 N.C.        A5 A5 N.C.
In some respects I suspect you've got a respectable side
     A5 N.C.               E5 E5 N.C.    D5 N.C.          E5 E5 N.C.
When pushed and pulled and pressured you seldom run and hide
             A5 N.C.        E5  E5 N.C.      C5       G5      A5
But it's for someone else's benefit, not for what you want to do
                     E5                        D5                 A5
Until I realize that you've realized I'm gonna say these words to you

Yeah, you don't know what love is, you do as you're told
A5 N.C.            E5 E5 N.C.                D5 N.C.   E5 E5 N.C.
Just as a child of ten might act, but you're far too old
           A5 N.C.     E5  E5 N.C.     C5      G5    A5
You're not hopeless or helpless, and I hate to sound cold
    E5                  G5
But you don't know what love is,

VERSE 2:
I can see your man can't help but win any problems when they arise
But in his mind there can be no sin if you never criticize
You just keep on repeatin' all those empty "I love you"'s
Until you see you deserve better I'm gonna lay right into to you
