** I have two versions of this song. The first version is easier and the notes ring more. The second one however, sounds more accurate (i think). So you just go on out and play whatever tickles your fickle.

  Emotions, yeah

  Will only make us cry.
         D/F#  G

           Bm7/F#

  Without a word of explanation.
          D/F#     G            Bm7/F#
  And he took your love for granted and
     C                   Am
  He left you high and dry.
         D/F#   G
  But you know
        Bm7/F#
  Someday
                C             Am              D/F#  G
  Well you'll wonder what you see in him anyway.
