version 2
Chords (probably not the correct names, just stabs in the dark):
For verse...
Bb - x133xxx ----> x132xx
F/D - x532xxx ----> x533xx
Bb/G - 3x33xx ----> 3x32xx
Eb/Bb - 668xxx ----> 667xxx
What the arrows above mean: on the D and G strings, the fingers pretty much stay
around the 3 frets, but it sounds good to throw in the arrow-listed chords while
playing the main chord. Listen to the song to hear what I mean... the piano
alternates between the notes.
For chorus...
Bb/D - 5587xx
Eb - x688xx
F/C - x81010xx (just a 'power chord' F at the 8th fret on the A string)
Bb - 688xxx
Bb/A - 588xxx
Gm - 3553xx
Note: all chords are palm muted, except for during the chorus, or whenever else
you feel motivated to change... if you want to try to pick out the pattern, go
for it. In general, throw some other notes in there as well if you want...
whatever makes YOU happy.
Here's the gist of it:
(Verse)
Bb F/D
I can't imagine all the people that you know
Bb/G
and the places that you go
Eb/Bb
when the lights are turned down low
(Chorus)
Bb/D Eb F Bb Bb/A (x2)
and then you bring me home
afraid to find out that you're alone, no
Bb Bb/A Gm
and I'm sleeping in your living room
Eb F
we don't have much room... to live/love
----------------
version 3
put a capo on the third fret and you're set..the chords are NOT related to the placement
the capo.
Verse:
four simple chords until the chorus
G D Em7 Cadd9
Chorus:
Also simple..all the same chords..just a different order. one chord added but whatever
G Cadd9 D G x3 (cept for the last chorus, but i'm sure you can figure that out)
G F#/D Em Cadd9 D
and that's the entire song...

baseline in every set of four. with the following notes repeating through the
hand for piano): D, Eb, F, Bb
----------------
version 8
This version uses drop D and helps make the arpeggiation easier in the verses. I
this from a piano tutorial as closely as possible, give or take an octave in some parts.
wise it is pretty much eighth notes with no rests in the verses. The chorus goes 1 and
on 2) and 3 and (rest on 4) and....etc. Not too hard really and a great melodic song.
