This is the way I play it. The verse is similar to the way David does it, but the
chorus is quite different.
Standard tuning, no capo.
Some quick notes on the chords:
B7 is just another way to play the B7 that makes it easier in same cases.
I use B7 in the verses, except during the suspension at the end.
During the chorus, use the second set of "chorus" chords.

VERSE:
It's [E]been[F#m7] so l[G#m7]ong since I've [B7]met some[E]one
That [A]makes me [E]feel this [B7sus]way[B7]
[E]Makes[F#m7] me s[G#m7]mile, and that's [B7]hard to [E]do
I [A]don't think it's [E]something you [B7sus]realize you [B7]do

CHORUS:
But we can't be to[E]gether
Can't really be [B]friends
We can't be [A]lovers
And we can't pre[B]tend
Oh that [G#]boy in your [C#m7]life
Better make you his [A]wife
And he better be[E]lieve[B7] he's a lucky guy
INTERLUDE: E A (repeat)
VERSE:
You wanted a song well here's one for you
Nobody will know except for us two
Don't ask me about it
Cuz I won't tell the truth
Just know that there's someone
Thinking of you
PRE-CHORUS:
You make me feel
Something I wish wasn't real at all
