Orchestration


   D5                   D5
If you, if you could return
             A5
don't let it burn
             A5
don't let it fade
                 C~
I'm sure I'm happier
                       C~
but it's just your attitude
                 G5
it's tearing me apart
                  G5
it's ruining everyday
    D5                       A5
I swore, I swore I would be true
                 A5
but honey so did you
                            C~
so why were you holding her hand
                   C~
is that the way we stand
                       G5
were you lying all the time
                      G5
was it just a game to you

Chorus
------
[chord progression: 
D5 A5 C~ G5 (same as verse)]

           D5
But I miss you
                    A5       A5
you know I'm such a fool for you
                               C~
you got me wrapped around your finger
                      G5
do you have to let it linger
       G5
do you have to
       G5
do you have to
       G5              D5
do you have to let it linger

Verse
-----
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
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
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger

[Slide guitar]

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
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger

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
do you have to
do you have to let it linger
