[Intro]
G7M , G7M(2) [x4]

[Verse 1]
(N.C.)                  G   D  C9      G7M  G7M(2) [Palm mute]
Pretty soon you will be wan-ti-ng me to go
(N.C.)                 G  D  C9    G7M  G7M(2) [Palm mute]
And I will only be the en-e-my you know
(N.C.)                  G   D  C9         G7M  G7M(2) [Palm mute]
Pretty soon you will be nee-di-ng me to leave
(N.C.)                       G  D   C9
But know that you and I will al-wa-ys be naive

[Chorus]
G               G/B                  C9
Maybe you'll forgive the things that I forgot
G               G/B             C9
Maybe you're forgetting all the times we fought
G               G/B          C9
Maybe we should divvy up the things we bought
    D4
But maybe not

[Bridge]
G            D4          Em7      C9  G7M  G7M(2)
Why don't we lay down on the kitchen floor
G           D4           Em7  C9  G7M  G7M(2)
All that we say we had with us before?
G              D4             Em7    C9  G7M  G7M(2)
We'll find our way to what we're looking for
G       D4         Em7     C9  G7M  G7M(2)
By separating what is mine from yours

[Instrumental]
G7M , G7M(2) [x4]

[Verse 2]
(N.C.)                  G   D  C9       G7M  G7M(2)
Pretty soon I'll be the one you hold at bay
    G       D4 G            D  C9    G7M  G7M(2)
And then forever  I'll be good as gold lam?
G D4 G                          D  C9        G7M  G7M(2)
I know your heart cannot be bought or sold for much
G      D4        G         D  C9         G7M  G7M(2)
Donder maar op, consider yourself told in Dutch

[Bridge]
And we can argue 'till our throats are sore
About how far you take a metaphor
You always deign to see the glass half filled
And now it seems to me the half glass spilled

[Chorus]
Maybe you'll forgive the things that I forgot.
Maybe you're forgetting all the times we fought.
Maybe we should divvy up the things we bought.
But maybe
Maybe you'll forgive the things that I forgot
Maybe you're forgetting all the times we fought
Maybe we should divvy up the things we bought
But maybe not
G , G/B , C9 , D4
               Maybe not
G , G/B , C9 , D4
               Maybe not
G , G/B , C9 , D4
               Maybe not

[Outro]
G , G/B , C9 , D4

[End on G ]
