Not too sure about all of this (the chorus) but it's a beautiful song and when I play it 
this it's beautiful too so it'll do. This is meant to be played by two guitars but I 
be bothered writing out the other part and anyway it sounds better played by one on an acoustic.
Listen to the song to get the rhythms, and enjoy!

couldnt believe what I was seeing
faces were screwed up like what I'd done
didnt mean to hurt you so much
I knew I would hurt you but not like this
we all make a mess from time to time dear
take me a lifetime to get this cleared
somebody muttered something under their breath
but I let on like I was a little deaf

Chorus

D                              C     C?
   Nobodies perfect thats what I say
                      Am             Am?
No one has hurt you so much you say
          D
I'm sorry

Verse

running away seemed like the easy
thing to do becasue I wanted time
to put a smile back on my dour face
for once nothings missing and I feel fine
I was afraid to tell you somethings
but somethings all find a way to get told
hearing it from the lips of somebody else
must have knocked the wind out of your sweet face (or chest if you prefer)
