Version 1 Version 2 Version 4

            This isn't actually the real way to play it since the Goo Goo Dolls use all that
alternate tuning, but it's close enough.  This is the standard tuning version.

[Intro]

Intro Riff x2


[Verse]

Em7                       Dsus4
  Could you whisper in my ear
                     Cadd9
The things you wanna feel

I'll give you anything to feel it coming
Em7                      Dsus4
  Do you wake up on your own,
                 Cadd9
Wonder where you are

Live with all your faults?


[Breakdown]

(Breakdown Riff) Cadd9

  Don't you love the life you killed?
                     Cadd9
The priest is on the phone

Your father hit the wall

Your Ma disowned you
Em7                       Dsus4
I don't suppose I'll ever know
                      Cadd9
What it means to be a man

It's something I can't change

I'll live around it...


[Breakdown]

I wanna wake up where you are

Little pieces of the nothing that fall

Oh May, put your arms around me
         Cadd9             G               Cadd9        Dsus4
What you feel is what you are and what you are is beautiful

Oh May, you wanna get married, or run away?

              Cadd9              G                   Cadd9          G
Why don't you slide between them sheets of all those beds you never knew
     Cadd9          G          Em7            Dsus4
Just slide up to my room, just slide up to my room

And I will run away, run away run away...
