Another weird chord i'm ABSOLUTELY sure is in the start of 2nd verse, even how weird it
might look Guess you can call it like : "BmMaj7Add11"-ish thing:

And here's how they play some other chords, so you get just the right sound:

The rest of them are pretty basic, as you probably can hear. Notice the rather significant
differences between the first and second verse, so you dont just play them the same way.
{section: Intro}
basically just pluck around on your average Bm-chord, you can hit
the 5th fret on your D-string from time to time, and also play down into
the verse like 5-4-3-2-on your a-string to make a bridge into the verse.
just when the voice kicks in. Just play around really, its a pretty loose
song when it comes to selecting which tones to add to your chords for more
texture.
Ohh...
Ohh...
So do what you're gotta do
And don't misunderstand me
You know you don't ever have to worry 'bout me
I'd do it again
Ohh...
Just do what you're gotta do
And don't misunderstand me
You know you don't ever have to worry 'bout me
I'd do it again

[Bm]How can I forget your t[Em]ender smile
Moments that I have s[Bm]hared with you

[Dm]Our hearts may break

But they're[C] on their way

[D6]And there's nothing I can [Bm]do   ..o[A]o..

Ohh...

[Bm7]So do what you're g[A]otta d[Em7]o
And don't misunder- [Bm]     [A]stand[Em] me
You [Bm7]know you don't [A]ever have to [Em7]worry 'bout me
[Bm]    I'd d[A]o it aga[Em]in

[BmMaj7]I can understand that it can't be

[Bm]Guess it's hard as you were meant for me

[Dm]But I can't hide my own despair

[Bm]I guess I never [A]will

Ohh...

So do what you're gotta do
And don't misunderstand me
You know you don't ever have to worry 'bout me
I'd do it again

[F]So tired of life

[C]No fairytale

[Dm]So hold your fire

[Bm]'Cause I need [A]you

Ohh...

Just do what you're gotta do
And don't misunderstand me
You know you don't ever have to worry 'bout me
I'd do it again

Last chorus:

[Bm7]Do what you're g[A]otta do[Em7]
And don't misunder [Bm]   ..[A]stand m[Em]e

You [Bm]keep going   [A]over every w[Em]ord that we've said

[Bm]     But [A]you don't ha[Em]ve to      ..w[A]orry

[Em]About me

{section: Outro}
[Bm]  [A]   [Em] x3 and end on [Bm] again.
