G#m
What have I got to do
   G#m7     C#m9     F#
To make you love me?
What have I got to do
   F#7      B     Bbm75- D#7 G#m
To make you care?
          G#m7
What do I do
               C#m7       C#m7add11 F#
When lightning strikes me
And I wake to find
     F#7        B      Bbm75- D#7 G#m
That you’re not there?

G#m       G#m7
What do I do
            C#m7     C#m7add11 C#m7 F#
To make you want me?
What have I got to do
F#7   B      Bbm75- D#7 G#m
To be heard?
          G#madd9
What do I say
          G#m7 C#m7 C#m7add11 C#m7
When it’s all over?
F#
Sorry seems to be
    F#7     B     F#/Bb
The hardest word.

Chorus:
  E/G#                 D#/G
     It’s sad (it’s so sad), it’s so sad,
  B/F#               C#/F
     It’s a sad, sad situation
  C#m/E               D#7sus4
     And it’s getting more
         D#7    G#m   Bbm75- D#7
     And more absurd.
  E/G#                 D#/G
     It’s sad (it’s so sad), it’s so sad,
  B/F#            C#/F
     Why can’t we talk it over?
  C#m/E                 C#m/E C#m/D#
     Always seems to me
          C#m7           D#9+
     That sorry seems to be
         D#7     G#m
     The hardest word.
