Something my friend the music major helped me work out. Please forward any comments or corrections to aultman@cs.fsu.edu Play each chord for one measure (4 beats). A dash (-) indicates to keep playing the same chord. Build up with E for two measures, then. Intro Chords: E (022100@1) C#m (x13321@4) E (022100@1) D(2x) (xx0232@1) Verse 1: E (022100@1) - This is our story. C#m (x13321@4) G#m (133111@4) It's a short one, but it's a F#m (244222@1) - Hard harsh read. B (x2444x@1) Between the lines, a little aching need. E (022100@1) - We're a strange arrangement; C#m G#m No strings. F#m (244222@1) - But the music we make is B (x2444x@1) Serpentine and bittersweet. E (022100@1) - In my youth, you know, C#m (x13321@4) G#m (133111@4) I loved you like gangbusters. F#mNow (244222@1)I watch you fall. BTwisting, (x2444x@1)turning, growing small. E (022100@1) - C#m (x13321@4) You're a roomful of sorrow, G#m (133111@4) A spoonful of joy F#m (244222@1) Another infidelity B (x2444x@1) Another pain, another golden glitter boy. Chorus: A (x02220@1) G#mIiiiiiiiiiiiiIiiiiiiiiii (133111@4) C#m (x13321@4) - I want you. I know it's crazy, BBut (x2444x@1)I really want to leave you, too. A (x02220@1) G#mIiiiiiiiiiiiiIiiiiiiiiii (133111@4) C#m (x13321@4) BI (x2444x@1)want you. Boy, oh boy, you bring me joy And then you make me blue. With intro chords: I love to love you; I'm a fool. You're callous and you're cold, And oh, so cruel. Verse 2: I'm starting to forget things. Faces, names. Games played, plans laid. Surely, there were promises made. Good love is easy to find, But it's hard to keep. And though I hate it when you wake, I still love to watch you sleep. Chorus. Repeat intro chords 4x during break. Using chorus chords 1x through: Oooooooh,Ooooooooooh,Oooooooooooooh Verse 3: Remember the early days When nickels were dimes, And a dollar took us everywhere. I don't think I ever combed my hair. Is this our story? Is this where the loving starts? In the stillness, the staring, The hardening of hearts? We're a strange arrangement; No strings. This is not my place, these are not my things. It's not my way, the pain love brings. Chorus. (repeat with vocal embellishments) End on E.
