This is a simple but very powerful song. Capo 2.

B7 is played in its barred version, so x24242 relative to the capo
As he gets further into the song, he also starts rooting the B7 chord on the
F# relative to the capo, so the chord shape turns into 224242. Not too hard
to switch up. Also, he hammers on the B for the G chord pretty often
throughout the song. It's fantastic, you should hear it live, just
gut-wrenching. In his words, "Have you ever had your heart taken and put
into traffic?" Just great. Here's the tab:

G ---- G ---- G --- G w/ occasional hammer onto the second fret (relative to
capo) on the A string

C (x32010@1)             Em (022000@1)  When I wrote you that letter

Am (x02210@1)                  G (320003@1) 
   You'd already made up your mind

Em (022000@1)       Am7 (x02010@1)             B7 (x21202@1)  All my words were writ in vain



C (x32010@1)                Em (022000@1)  When I called you up that day

Am (x02210@1)                G (320003@1)  I was only calling up to say

Em (022000@1)        Am7 (x02010@1)      B7 (x21202@1)  Hellooooooooooo

C (x32010@1)     Em (022000@1)     Am (x02210@1)    G (320003@1)      
   But goodbyeeeeeeee.....

Em (022000@1)                 Am7 (x02010@1)                B7 (x21202@1)  Was the word that she'd been thinking 'bout for days



C (x32010@1)                          Em (022000@1)  I didn't know that you were going to leave me

Am (x02210@1)                      G (320003@1)  I wish I knew the way to make you come home

Am7 (x02010@1)       B7 (x21202@1)              Em (022000@1)(Bend guitar for Wah-oo-wah)
   What can I do if this is right for you



Chorus

Am (x02210@1)     C (x32010@1)      G (320003@1)        D (xx0232@1)  I have not been perfect for you

Am (x02210@1)              C (x32010@1)             G (320003@1)      D (xx0232@1)  Although I think I was back at the start

Am (x02210@1)      C (x32010@1)      G (320003@1)         D (xx0232@1)  You have no more patience for me

Am (x02210@1)              C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)     G (320003@1)  So now I guess we'll both just drift apart

D x 2

C (x32010@1)                 Em (022000@1) 
   All those times I wasn't there

Am (x02210@1)                   G (320003@1)  The times you thought I didn't care

Em (022000@1)             Am7 (x02010@1)              B7 (x21202@1)  I hope you can believe I thought of you



C (x32010@1)            Em (022000@1)          
   Cause you were everything I needed

Am (x02210@1)               G (320003@1)  I've been selfish and so self-absorbed

Em (022000@1)                  Am7 (x02010@1)          B7 (x21202@1)  I thought that you'd be waiting when I reached the other side



C (x32010@1)            Em (022000@1)         Am (x02210@1)             G (320003@1)  Last night I put my arms around another woman's waist

Em (022000@1)                 Am7 (x02010@1)        B7 (x21202@1)  The touch was sweet but bitter as we danced



C (x32010@1)                  Em (022000@1)  And great love can bring greater pain

Am (x02210@1)               G (320003@1)  I hope I fall in love again

Am (x02210@1)        B7 (x21202@1)                Em (022000@1)(Bend guitar for Wah-oo-wah)

Am (x02210@1)      C (x32010@1)      G (320003@1)        D (xx0232@1)  You have no more patience for me

   I want the best for you and now I realize that isn't me

Em (022000@1)         Am (x02210@1)           C (x32010@1)              B7 (x21202@1)  
   I haven't been the man in need, I wish I'd been able to be

Em (022000@1)         Am (x02210@1)          C (x32010@1)           B7 (x21202@1)  I'm sorry that I did not give you everything that you desired

C (x32010@1)        G (320003@1)         D (xx0232@1)  I have not been perfect for you

Am (x02210@1)            C (x32010@1)             G (320003@1)        D (xx0232@1)  I wish we could go back and just restart

Am (x02210@1)       C (x32010@1)     G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1)  But you have no more patience for me

Am (x02210@1)              C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)       G (320003@1)     B7 (x21202@1)   B7 (x21202@1)  So now I guess we'll both just drift apaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaart





Em (022000@1)           Am (x02210@1)       C (x32010@1)       B7 (x21202@1)
