Repeat Intro 1 once and then play it over verse quietly
Strum chords softly on first line then second line play a little harder
It sounds to me like the chords are played using a Tremelo aswell.


  Bm                 A     D                   G
I felt for sure last night at once we said goodbye
       Bm		     A
no one else will know these lonely dreams
       D		  G
no one else will know that part of me
    Bm              A          D            G
I'm still driving away and I'm sorry every day
        Bm                A
I won't always love these selfish things
           D           G
I won't always live... no, stop it...



Repeat Intro 2 but only play it once:



Repeat verse without Intro 1:
             -------

It was my turn to decide, I knew this was our time
no one else will have me like you do
no one else will have me, only you



Chorus - Same Chord pattern as verse:



Em	  	    G           	      D
you'll sit alone forever if you wait for the right time
	      A
what are you hoping for?
    Em		      G 		D
I'm here and now I'm ready, holding on tight
		    A				     
don't give away the end, the one thing that stays mine



Repeat Intro 3:



Verse 2 - Repeat chord pattern from Verse 1

Amazing still it seems, I'll be 23
I won't always love what I'll never have
I won't always live in my regrets


Chorus:


You'll sit alone forever if you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I'm here and now I'm ready, holding on tight
don't give away the end, the one thing that stays mine

Final chorus:

	D	    Asus4		      Bm
You'll sit alone forever if you wait for the right time
	      G
What are you hoping for?
     D		      A			Bm
I'm here and now I'm ready, holding on tight
		    G				   D
don't give away the end, the one thing that stays mine...
