Verse:
Cmaj7 Dm7 Cmaj7 G7 Cmaj7
I was fine with the men who would come into her life, now and again
Dm7 D7 F G7 Cmaj7 C7
I was fine cuz I knew that they didn’t really matter until you
Cmaj7 Dm7 Cmaj7 G7 Cmaj7
I was fine when you came and we fought like it was all some silly game

Over her, who she’d choose
F G7 Cmaj7
After all those years, I never thought I’d lose

And she loved you, and she’s gone

Bold, precise, experimental

Who am I now in this world without her

Petty and dull with the nerve to doubt her

What does it matter? It’s already done

Now I’ve got to be there for her son

@Maichie is right. It's much easier to play E like:
A - 2
E - 4
C - 4
G - 4
A - 2
E - 4
C - 4
G - 4

@maxthelion Personally, I think the way it is in this tab sounds better. But to each their own...

@pockyson I'm pretty sure that if you play the "D" chord (holding down strings G, C, and E at the second fret) but two frets up (4th fret) that is an easier way to play "E" ... i think lol

the bridge works if you play-- Am, E7, C, D, Dm, Am, F#dim, E7 on repeat instead of whats written there.

It really isn't that bad but "E' is just difficult to play as a note. Are there any alternatives??
