D#m
What have I got to do

To make you love me?
What have I got to do
   C#7      F#    Fm75- Bb7 D#m
To make you care?
          D#m7
What do I do
               G#m7       G#m7add11 C#
When lightning strikes me
And I wake to find
     C#7        F#     Fm75- Bb7 D#m
That you’re not there?

D#m       D#m7
What do I do

     It’s a sad, sad situation
  G#m/B               Bb7sus4

         Bb7    D#m   Fm75- Bb7
     And more absurd.

     Always seems to me
          G#m7           Bb9+

     The hardest word.
