To make you love me?
What have I got to do
   E7       A     G#m75- C#7 F#m
To make you care?
          F#m7
What do I do
               Bm7        Bm7add11 E
When lightning strikes me
And I wake to find
     E7         A      G#m75- C#7 F#m
That you’re not there?

F#m       F#m7
What do I do

Sorry seems to be
    E7      A     E/G#

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

     Why can’t we talk it over?

     Always seems to me
          Bm7            C#9+

     The hardest word.
