Repeat that 8 times for the intro.
Verses:
Play the intro throughout the first two lines of the verse, like this:
G Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Gsus4
I opened up the paper, I was all across the page
G Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Gsus4
With another senorita, will I ever act my age?
Then, for the next line, play this...
C Csus4
e|-----------------|
B|-----------------|
G|-----0-------0---|

e|-----------------|
B|-----------------|
G|-----0-------0---|
D|---4---4---4---4-|

Then for the last line(s) of the verse, go back to playing the intro thing.

G|------------10-|

C5 B5 A#5

D5
What you get is what you see
C5 A#5 C5
This is me, This is me
The next verse is only really half a verse, but its played the same as the first halves
any other verses. The only difference is that there's this played over the top of it by
lead guitar:
e|-7-5-------7-------------|
B|-----8-7-8-----7---8-7-8-|
G|------------(7)-(7)------|
D|-------------------------|
A|-------------------------|
E|-------------------------|
That is played through most of this verse.
Chorus again with the "lookin for somethin, laughing at nothing, dreaming of what could
part sung at the beginning.
The next verse and chorus are the same, but shifted up by two frets (one tone), so play
two frets higher. The easiest thing to do for the verse on this part is to play the 7th
on your A string where there would usually be an open D string (the same applies to the
on D/Open G string)
Easy enough, when it comes down to it, don't you think? If this tab confuses you a bit,
PM me and I'll try and clear it up a bit.
i opened up the paper, i was all across the page
with another senorita, will i ever act my age
i always hurt the people that care for me, it's true
but i can't help myself, it's just one of those things i do
i ain't no casanova, not like it reads in the book
i'm just trying to find this love thing though it's taking a long hard look
if you need your heart breaking you've come to the right place
just be aware of the buyer beware sign written on my face
this is me
this is me
what you get is what you see
this is me
i don't want your sympathy
and i can't help what you think of me
looking for something
laughing at nothing
dreaming of what could be
this is me
this is me
what you get is what you see
this is me
one day i will meet my fate, complete my destiny
no pearly gates, no angel mates waiting there for me
don't ask me the reason why i take it to the wire
i just live it fast, this life's a blast
sometimes you got to play with fire
looking for something
laughing at nothing
dreaming of what could be
this is me
this is me
what you get is what you see
this is mee
