D-DU-UDU
Oh b-baby, don't you be so mad because I barely remember
And she tries to recognize me with the eyes she saw me with in December
And she's starting to realize that it's actually not a good thing
And it's so tough because you're down to go out again and have another adventure
All her friends in the alleyway shout back, but she can't hear them
But you're never gonna get my love
We can only blame the sun
Get up in the morning and run
You'll be frustrated 'til the day that you're done
He got punched the mouth for sticking his nose in other people's business
No good solution, always on the verge of some revolution
With tough luck it may take a thousand years but I think we can do it
Best friends fight, but they never enjoy life as good as when they abuse it
He said the soldier is... (I can't seriously understand this part of the song, lol).
But you're never gonna get their love
We can only fight in the sand
You get tired when the days are too long
You get lonely when the days are gone
C - Em - Am, then you stay for a while following the rythm, and then go back doing
Basically you repeat this 'til solo ends, then at the end, strumming changes and the
next chord in that strumming is C.
He could never mention it out here and now without big tears in his eyes
And you're never gonna get my love
We can only fight in the sand
You get tired when the days are too long
You get lonely when the days are gone
Oh you're never gonna get this love
We can roll around in the dark
That's about as far as we go
Get up in the morning and run
And that's it, remember to always try different strumming patterns so you can find one
according to your needings, wether you're gonna play this song at the same rythm or
slower, always try to find the right pattern.
(The arrangement of the chords in each paragraph is not exactly that one, I tried to do
my best to arrange them correctly, it's not perfect but you can fix them).
