Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Guitar Figure 1

Verse

I find it hard, hard to let go

And you are entitled to know

You have brought nothing else but bliss,

A great deal of frustration, a voluntary occupation,

Driving me insane and off the wall

Verse

And we were free to choose each other

But now it seems like something other

Have you placed me where I stand?

Turned caring like a mother, afraid to lose each other

It got us this far, now problems are:

Refrain

I have no bags to pack, no suitcase waiting in the hall

You have no make-up, no stocki - ings in my drawer

Oh-oh, how did we forge - et? How could we forget?

It's easy to lear - earn if you never regret

Interlude

Verse

When you live in paranoia

And you know she's got you, oh yeah

You can't leave until you know the truth

So for months you're going nowhere until you seize the day

 And place yourself behind the steering wheel

Verse

Or you can't end like you don't want to,

The opposite of what you planned to

You can watch the ships when they're abroad

Become a joke when people see you, 'cause it's enough to please you

You got this far, step put of the car

[repeat CHORUS]

[repeat INTERLUDE]

Bass figure:

We'll never learn in the future,

This is it, seemingly, I am sure

I know we haven't been together now

Verse

It wasn't meant to be this way so

We'll give it days and days and

We'll try to make it easy now

Once I believed we could approach this,

Now I have faith placed in the things you call fa - ate

 In the things you call fa - ate

 In the things you call fate
