Standard (EADGBE)

 I woke up this morning with a grudge the size of your story

 Oh, I feel, I feel so low

Let me start at the end, the part I haven't figured out yet

 Yes, I am, I'm moving slow

You are playin' the lead

 The headache that my actions feed

 Oh, I've only got myself to blame

This is another test which I would fail and at my best

 Oh, always ending the same

If I were an honest guy

 I'd give this role another try

Chorus

What are we doing, I'm too in love with you,

 I forgot what I wanted to say

 What are we doing, you won't change your ways,

 It's time, it's time

 If I just save you, you could save me too

 If I just save you, then you could save me too

(da da da da...da da da da)

 I woke up the next morning and I didn't see it coming

 Oh, your bags were packed and gone

I called all your friends, they said hadn't seen you yet

 Oh, my head's going to explode

If I were an honest guy

 I'd give this role another try

Chorus

 If I just save you, you could save me too

 If I just save you, then you could save,

You could save me too

[play bass strings, gradually get louder in bridge]

I believe in the finer things, and you don't believe in me

 I said, I believe in the finer things, and you don't believe in me

 I said, I believe in the finer things, and you don't..

 If I just save you, you could save me too

 If I just save you, then you could save,

You could save me too

 What are we doing, I'm too in love with you,

 I forgot what I wanted to say

 What are we doing, I'm too in love with you,

 I forgot what I wanted to say

 No one does it better,

 No one does it bett-er,

 No one does it oh,

 No one does it bett-er [repeat]

 I woke up this morning with a grudge the size of your story,

 Which now I have told you all
