VERSE I
Am F C
You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
G
You were always crazy like that
Am F
I watched from my window,
C G
always felt I was outside looking in on you
Am
You were always the mysterious one
F
with dark eyes and careless hair,
C G
You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care
Am F C
Then you stood in my doorway, with nothing to say
G
besides some comment on the weather
BRIDGE:
Dm
Well in case you failed to notice,
F
In case you failed to see,
C
This is my heart bleeding before you,
G
This is me down on my knees
CHORUS:
F G C G F
These foolish games are tearing me apart
F G C G F
You're thoughtless words are breaking my heart
Am
You're breaking my heart
VERSE II
Am F
You were always brilliant in the morning
C G
Smoking your cigarettes, talking over coffee
Am F
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you,
C
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones
G
As I clumsily strummed my guitar
Am
You'd teach me of honest things
F
Things that were daring, things that were clean
C G
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean
Am F
So I hid my soiled hands behind my back
C G
Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you
BRIDGE:
Dm F
Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else
C
Somebody who gave a damn,
G
Somebody more like myself
REPEAT CHORUS.
D F C
You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
G
you were always crazy like that

Couple of changes, the D at the end should be a Dm. the Dm at the bridge is better as an E in my opinion and in the chorus as well as several other verses that have an Am to F, I like to throw in a Dm for flavor, it makes the song sound more full. But otherwise a great start and an awesome song!
