A perfect mess
You never knew this
But I wanted badly for you to
Requite my love

And lows are the [F#m]way
[Em]So hard to [F#m]stay
[A]Guess now you [Bb]know
[A]I love you [Bb]so [A]
I liked your whiskers
And I liked the dimple in your chin
Your pale blue eyes
You painted pictures
Cause the one who hurts can give so much
You gave me such

I dont know if this part is played with a 12 stringed guitar.
It sound very high to me, but I donÔt know.
Anyway, the chords are:
D D(On C#)? G A Bm A5 Bb5 C Em F#m

B-----7-----7-----------3------5----3---------------1----0--2-----

D-----7-----7-----------5------7----4-----2---3-----2----2--4-----
A-----5-----4-----------5------7----2-----0---1-----3----2--4-----
E-----------------------3------5-------------------------0--2-----
The thing is that I donÔt know if there is a 12 stringed guitar or if
you play these chords up around the 12-15 fret.
The chords should be played in a arpeggio kind of way
Something like this:
(THIS IS NOT EXACT)

My mouth fell open
Hoping that the truth
Would not be true
Refuse the news
I'm feeling sick now
What the fuck am I
Supposed to do
Just lose and lose
First time I saw you
You were sitting
Backstage in a dress
A perfect mess
You never knew this
But I wanted badly for you to
Requite my love
Chorus :
Left on the floor
Leaving your body
When highs are the lows
And lows are the way
So hard to stay

Your pale blue eyes
You painted pictures
Cause the one
