This is one measure /----/.  The dashes are beats.  For example:
/Gsus4-G-/  You play Gsus4 on the first and second beat, then G on the third
and fourth. Some measures have only 2 beats, like the second half of verse 1.


Intro:
/C---/Gsus4-G-/C---/Gsus4-G-/

Verse 1:
/C---/G---/Dm---/G---/
Sorry, is all that you can say
Years gone by and 

/C---/G---/Dm---/F-/G---/Gsus4-G-/
still, words don't come easily
Like sorry, like sorry

/C---/G---/Dm---/G---/
Forgive me, is all that you can say
Years gone by and

/C---/G---/Dm---/F-/G---/Gsus4-G-/
Still, words don't come easily
Like forgive me, forgive me

/C---/Dm-F-/C---/Dm-F-/Am---/G---/
But you can say baby, baby can I hold you tonight
Maybe if I told you the right words, ooh at the right time
You'd be mine

/C---/Dm-F G/

/C---/G---/Dm---/G---/
I love you, is all that you can say
Years gone by and

/C---/G---/Dm---/F-/G---/Gsus4-G-/
Still, words don't come easily
Like I love you, I love you

/C---/Dm-F-/C---/Dm-F-/Am---/G---/
But you can say baby, baby can I hold you tonight
Maybe if I told you the right words, ooh at the right time
You'd be mine

/C---/Dm-F-/C---/Dm-F-/Am---/G---/
Baby can I hold you tonight
Maybe if I told you the right words, ooh at the right time
You'd be mine

/C---/Dm-F G/C---/Dm-F G/C---/
You'd be mine, You'd be mine

These are the exact chords in the song, transposed down two semitones.  If 
you want to play in the original key, use the transpose function at the top
to transpose it up 2 steps.

I like to play this song a bit differently, so I'm putting up my own version
too.  I just figured I'd put up the original, since the others here aren't correct.
