Oh I still do
Need sometime to find myself
I wanna live within
Can I go my own way
Can I pray my own way
I don' t want to leave you
Oh I need you
Am I ready for this
Did I think I would be
Can I see the future
No, I can' t see
I don' t want to leave you...
Oh, nananana, oh I still do

You' re spinning me around
My feet are off the ground
I don' t know where I stand
Do you have to hold my hand
You mistify me, you mistify me, you mistify me
Ohuhoh, when you walked into the room
it happened oh so soon
I didn' t want to know
Does you really have to go
You mistify me, you mistify me, you mistify me
Here comes the violins !
9 9 9 9 9
And I couldn' t find the words to say I love you
And I couldn' t find the time to say I need you
They wouldn' t come out right
They wouldn' t come out right
Just came out all wrong
Ohuhoh, you' re spinning me...
Here the other guitar gives 3 (on the third fret) to string e
Oh do you know where to go, where to go
Something on your mind wanna leave me behind,

If you, if you could return
don't let it burn

I'm sure I'm happier
but it's just your attitude
it's tearing me apart
it's ruining everyday
I swore, I swore I would be true
but honey so did you
so why were you holding her hand
is that the way we stand
were you lying all the time
was it just a game to you
Chorus
[chord progression: / ~ (same as verse)]
But I miss you
you know I'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger

do you have to let it linger

Guitar I - single chord strums with tremelo/echo effect
Guitar II - strumming
Oh, I thought I loved you
I thought that nothing could go wrong
but I was wrong

If you, if you could get by
trying not to lie
things wouldn't be so confused
and I wouldn't feel so used
but you always ruin you
I just wanna be with you
Chorus
and I miss you
you know I'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger

If you , if you could return
Don' t let it burn, don' t let it fade
I' m sure I' m not being rude
But it' s just your attitude
It' s tearing me apart
It' s ruining everything
And I swore, I swore I will be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand
Is that the way we stand
Were you lying all the time
Was it just a game to you
But I' m in so deep
You know I' m such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger

But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you
But I' m in so deep ...

Intro chords
The same chords are used throughout the song, except sometimes
the Csus4 may be just plain C.
Sitting in an armchair with my head between my hands
Wouldn't have to be like this if you'd only understand
Too many misunderstandings causing such delay
If it doesn't work like this I'll try another way
Oh....this is the way you wanted it
Oh....I didn't understand
Oh....this is the way you wanted it
Oh....I didn't understand
You know that all I wanted was to be there by your side
And if you didn't want it then you shouldn't have denied
You knew that you were someone special right from the start
But if you treat me badly we'd be better off apart
Oh...this is the way you wanted it
Oh...I didn't understand
Oh...this is the way you wanted it
Oh...I didn't understand
Understand
Elevated warbling to finish.
Chords:
Intro
(let ring)
Sitting in an armchair,
my head between my hands
I wouldn't have to be like this
if you'd only understand
Too many misundertandings
causing such delay
And If it doesn't work like this
well I'll try another way
Ohhhh If this is the way you wanted it
Ohhhh I didn't understand
Ohhhh If this is the way you wanted it
Ohhhh I didn't understand
You know that all I wanted
was to be there by your side.
And if you didn't want it
Then you shouldn't have denied.
You knew that you were someone special
right from the start
But if you treat me badly
we'd be better off apart.
Ohhhh If this is the way you wanted it
Ohhhh I didn't understand
Ohhhh If this is the way you wanted it
Ohhhh I didn't understand
Dm A# F C (with a lot of "ohs") x 9
End on C
Still Can't...
The chords are
Intro
This pattern is also repeated through some parts of the song.
The progression is :
Intro
Still can't recognise the way I feel I feel I feel
Nothing of what you said to me was real
And you still can't find the strength to apologize, uh-gize, uh-gize, a-lies.
You just go on laughing and telling everyone lies
Cuz you wanted it all, you wanted it all, you wanted it all
No, and there's nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Maybe if you could see beyond your nose, your nose, your nose, who knows?
Nothing of what had happened surely shows.
But your ego excelled and then your additude,
And you went on laughing and shoutin, "It's all too shrewd."
Cuz you wanted it all, you wanted it all, you wanted it all
No, and there's nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
La de da de da de de da da de de de da da da da
La de da de da de de da da de de de da da da da
Still can't recognise the way I feel I feel I feel
Nothing of what you said to me was real
And you still can't find the strength to apologize, uh-gize, uh-gize, a-lies.
You just go on laughing and telling everyone lies
Cuz you wanted it all, you wanted it all, you wanted it all
No, and there's nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
La de da de da de de da da de de de da da da da
La de da de da de de da da de de de da da da da
Wanted it all, wanted it all, you wanted it all
Wanted it all, wanted it all, you wanted it all.
Fade out repeating .

You can play and repeat.
Or play those chords, then FMaj7 F? Dm(add9) then go back to C and repeat this whole
over and over again.
Also, the song breaks off into / /
