Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Everybody  wants a lover
Nobody  wants to uncover
What  may lays deep beneath a sometimes  painful past
Wanna  go without care
Pull  gardenias from her hair
I  think of a time we didn't have a care  in the world
Captivated  by her beauty I knew  it was my life-long duty
She  had all the grace and charm of a radiant  queen
How  do you talk without speaking?
How  do you hear without listening?
How  do you live without feeling?
How  do you take without giving?
How  do you keep it all inside?
 Strophe 2:
There  are footprints on my ceiling
I  can't help this fucked up feeling
Something's  wrong, you ain't comin' around  here no  more
Try  to get my thoughts together
I  think of a time when things were better
This  miscommunication is breaking  me down
 Than repeat chorus ...
 Strophe 3:
Everybody  wants a lover
Nobody  wants to uncover
What  may lays deep beneath a sometimes  painful past
My  heart is heavy slowly sinking
I  redirect my desperate thinking
And  kiss her red full lips like I did  the very first time
 Than repeat the chorus once again ....
 That's it !
 ....Great song....
 Cheers/Timi
