intro(on the g string)5-7-9-12-11((this is the intro and the fill throughout the
song...i just hammer on each note.the outro im stll working on cuz its a step higher...
i think its the same finger positioning except on the A string)
Verse 1:
                                  Em
I guess this time you're really leavin
   G                          D-Dsus4-Dsus2-D
I heard your suitcase say goodbye
                               Em
well as my broken heart lies beatin
 G                       D-Dsus4-Dsus2-D
they say true love is suicide
                             Em
you say you cry a thousand rivers
           G                     D-Dsus4-Dsus2-D
but now you're swimmin for the shore
                            Em
you left me drownin in my tears
          G             A
and you wont save me anymore
(He doesn't play anything here)
and i'm praying to God you'll give me one more chance girl
D
i'll be there for you
Bm
these five words i swear to you
G
when you breathe i want to be the air for you
A         C-G-D
I'll be there for you
D
i'd live and i'd die for you
Bm
i'll steal the sun from the sky for you
G
words cant say what love can do
A          C-G-D
I'll be there for you

verse 2:
                                 Em
i know you know we've had some good times
G                          D-Dsus4-Dsus2
now they have their own hiding place
                          Em
well i can promise you tomorrow
G                       A
but i cant buy back yesterday
                                G
and baby you know my hands are dirty
A                        D-D/C#-Bm
but i wanted to be your   party time
                                  G
i'll be the water when you get thirsty baby
                                 A
when you get drunk i'll be the wineeeeeeeeeee  ohhhhhhh
(chorus again)

solo: D-Bm-G-A-C-G-D(2X)
A                                G
i wanted to know what made you happy
    A                                 D-D/C#-Bm
and i wanted to know when you were down

                                     G
i didnt mean to miss your birthday baby
                                        A
i wish i'd seen you blow those candels out
(once again he doesnt play anything here)
