Standard (EADGBE)
Now, as to the song proper:
Hey, you say you're looking for something you've never found.
Well, the last time I checked I was lost and wandering around,
'cause I know just how it feels to be the best thing you ever had,
but still not quite good enough to be the last one.
And there you go again, spinning all your wheels.
You never know what you've got until you lose it,
and here I am still waiting after all these years.
Well, you can look all over this great big world,
and you can look down every street,
in every bookstore, on every dancefloor,
at every girl you meet.
And you can drive out to California
and chase down all of your dreams.
I'm sure you'll find someone beautiful,
but you'll never...you'll never find me.
You'll never find me.
Hey, they say that real love is completely letting go.
Well, my hands are way up in the air and you're somewhere in Arizona.
Just a few more hundred miles and you'll have everything you need,
except for these arms to hold you when that lie brings you to your knees.
And there you go again, spinning all your wheels.
You never know what you've got 'til you lose it,
and here I am, still waiting after all these years.
Well, you can look all over this great big world,
and you can look down every street,
in every bookstore, in every dive bar,
at every girl you meet.
And when you look out over the ocean
from the shores of Venice Beach,
I know you'll find the brightest stars,
but you'll never...you'll never find me.
Oh, you'll never find me.
Oh, you'll never find me.
Oh...
You can look all over this great big world,
you can look down every street,

And when you look out over the ocean
from the shores of Venice Beach,
I know you'll find the brightest stars,
but you'll never...you'll never find me.
Oh, you'll never find me.
Oh, you'll never find me.
Oh...
No, no, no, no, no, no...
