Natalie Imbruglia: Track 05: Wishing I Was There: Left of the Middle (1998)


This is a very fun and simple song, all chords are relative to capo...I have seen this
in other ways but when I listen to the song the chords sound more open to me so I prefer
play it with a capo..it makes life a lot easier. I am almost positive that I have this 
but if you have corrections let me know ;)

**Capo 3rd fret**

Verse 1:

          DTake (xx0232@1)your hand,

Flick your eyes back in their sockets
GPut (320003@1)those thoughts away
                            DSometimes (xx0232@1)they're much too loud
             DI'll (xx0232@1)take a breath
                       CAnd (x32010@1)cradle your sweet head
                            GShould've (320003@1)stayed at home in bed

Pre-Chorus:

  GI (320003@1)know,
       BmI (x24432@1)get cold
DCause (xx0232@1)I can't leave things well alone

Understand I'm accident prone
G (320003@1)       BmMe, (x24432@1)I get free
C (x32010@1)                     GEvery (320003@1)night the moon is mine


Chorus:

                      DBut (xx0232@1)when the morning comes
               CDon't (x32010@1)say you love me,
                GDon't (320003@1)say you need me
               DI (xx0232@1)really don't think that's fair
                 D (xx0232@1)                CBoy, (x32010@1)I'm not so dumb, but when you leave me

                              GYou (320003@1)just laughed and smiled, denied the proof
                  DWe're (xx0232@1)fine till I think of a problem
               DI (xx0232@1)wish it made sense,
                        CLike (x32010@1)a joke that no one gets,
                     GIt's (320003@1)a life without regret
                            DI (xx0232@1)want it to feel that way, forever and ever
