-------

Great song by a great band! This is the first non-happy song I've
heard from them. Like with all their songs, you have to tune down
one note to play along to the CD.

VERSE 1:

--------

[B] I'm lookin' at my [F#m]watch
[Em7] At all the time that's been [A7]stolen
[B] When I was carrying [F#m]you
[Em7] It seems I've tripped and I've [A7]fallen

VERSE 2: [play like verse 1]

--------

Don't want no one to ache
Oh to be drunk and forgetful
To get out of this unscathed
Oh to be free and inhuman

CHORUS: [see tab below]

-------

E A7
Some, may say
E Am7
I love, to play
D G F#
When the chance is there to take

[the second and third time you play the chorus tab in the song it
might have some tiny variations, but I don't wanna bother to tab
them out, it's basically the same.]

VERSE 3: [play like verse 1]

--------

I'm moppin' up the floor
From messy recipes of romance
I'm packin' up the pots
Too many cooks in the kitchen

CHORUS: [play like previous chorus]

-------

Some, may say
I love, to let
a good thing go to waste
I let it go to waste
