you say stay and never leave
you say meant for ever
I could believe you, but I don't
you say we're almost all alone together
all alone
you say
you say you will
I know you won't

        B5
  I was wrong

D       A             B5
  I was wrong to ever doubt

D       A             B5
  I can get along without

D       A              B5
  I can love my fellow man

D         E                   #1
  but I'm damned if I'll love yours

in a bar that's always closing
in a world where people shout
I don't wanna talk this over
I don't wanna talk it out
I was quite impressed until I hit the floor
isn't that what friends are for?
pain looks great on other people
that's what they're for

        B5
  I was wrong

D       A             B5
  I was wrong to ever doubt

D       A             B5
  I can get along without

D       A              B5
  I can love my fellow man

D         E                   #1
  but I'm damned if I'll love yours

Remarks:

The above is my interpretation of the song for one guitar, but since
there are (at least) two acoustics + a bass, it's, as usual, quite
tricky to sort out what plays what. It's especially hard at the part
between the asterisks.

Also, I really don't know if "B5" is really called B5 :-)
