C#m
What have I got to do

To make you love me?
What have I got to do
   B7       E     D#m75- G#7 C#m
To make you care?
          C#m7
What do I do
               F#m7       F#m7add11 B
When lightning strikes me
And I wake to find

That you’re not there?

     It’s a sad, sad situation
  F#m/A               G#7sus4
     And it’s getting more
         G#7    C#m   D#m75- G#7
     And more absurd.
  A/C#                 G#/C
