You can do the A on the next string up with an 2 chord, but I find this way
easier. Most other chords, you can use full bar chords except the Bridge.
Just
keep playing the pattern over each line until you reach a new chord. Step 2:
Find a really good bassist to play with you.
Intro:
F#5 A5 F#5 E5 (4x)
Verse
F#5 A5 F#5 E5
Well Ya know that I want your loving,
but my logic tells me that it aint never gonna happen,
and then my defense is to say I didn't want it anyway,
but you know sometimes I'm a liar.
C#m B
Could you ever want me to love you?
C#m B
Could you ever want me to care?
F#5 A5 F#5 E5
Disregard my nervousness,
please ignore my vacant stares,
Chorus
C#m B
'cause just what I've been through,
A
is nothing like where I'm going to.
F# A F# E
Give me some sign to pursue,
A promise,
B
and you're unhappy.
N.C.
...This is only a guess...
