Verses/Refrains all same chords --The bass notes of G, E, C, G are just the 3rd note of that chord's scale being played under In the song, that note is being played by a synth so you can choose to play it or not, up to you. If you listen to the song, you'll hear the synth with that beat. Again, if have a question or are confused just shoot me an email. Verse 1: C/G Am/E If you need a friend, don't look to a stranger, F C You know in the end, I'll always be there. C Am And when you're in doubt, and when you're in danger, F C Take a look all around, and I'll be there. Chorus 1: C I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. Am I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. F But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me, C Am G C I promise, I promise you I will. Verse 2: When your day is through, and so is your temper, You know what to do, I'm gonna always be there. Sometimes if I shout, it's not what's intended. These words just come out, with no gripe to bear. Chorus 2: I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.(I promise you) I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.(I promise you) But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,(I promise you) I promise, I promise you... Chorus 3: I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.(I promise you) I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.(I promise you) And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,(I promise you) I promise you, I promise you I will. Bridge/Interlude: I gotta tell you, need to tell ya I gotta tell you, i've gotta tell ya Chorus 4: I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.(I promise you) I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.(I promise you) But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,(I promise you) I promise, I promise you... Chorus 5/Outro: I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.(i promise you) I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.(i promise you) And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me, I promise you, I promise you I will. I will. I will. --I love this song from the '80s. I heard it again in Napoleon Dynamite so I looked for on the internet, but to no avail so I decided to tab it myself. Hope you enjoy. Great Thanks for the comment on the chorus chords--I was indeed incorrect. Thanks!!
