Verse:
B
Baby, we are lying here
Gaug B
Pretending that we’re both asleep
G#m
I can hear your broken heart
And every single breath you breathe
B C#
It’s hard to find the words to say
B
When we both hurt like this
F#m
So I close my eyes and pray
G#m
Time will heal what we’re bound to miss
Pre Chorus:
Gaug
No one can ever say
B
Why it goes this way
Chorus:
Sometimes what we want isn’t what we get
D#m
Sometimes what we get ain’t really what we want
Sometimes what we want isn’t what we get
B
Sometimes what we get ain’t really what we want
It seems for every one we win
E
There’s another three we lose
D#m
We’ve waited for the answer here
B G#m
Only just to leave confused
B
You know you’re forever mine
And baby, I’m forever yours

Ooh, waiting in the open door
