(Intro)
Em Dm11 C
-0- -0- -0- E|-3-0-------------| -0- -3- -1- B|-----3-0---------| -0- -0- -0- G|---------3-0-2-0-| -2- -4- -2- D|-----------------| -2- -5- -3- A|-----------------| -0- -x- -x- E|-----------------|

(Verse 1)
Em Dm11 C C
Is that a smile that hangs beneath your nose
Em Dm11 C C
Or are your lips just stuck to your teeth and they're too fixed to close
Em Dm11 C C
You don't have to ham it up for me or tell me how long you've
Em Dm11 C
Waited just to be with me
(Chorus)
|-0---2---2---0-0-|---2-2---2---0-0-|-0---2---2---0-0-|-2---2---2---0-0-| |-3---3---3---3-3-|---3-3---3---3-3-|-3---3---3---3-3-|-3---3---3---3-3-| |-2---2---2---2-2-|---2-2---2---2-2-|-0---0---0---0-0-|-0---0---0---2-2-| |-0---0---0---0-0-|---0-0---0---0-0-|-2---2---2---2-2-|-2---2---2---0-0-| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

D
I've been a long term disappointment to myself
Em Dm11
But it hits like a hammer when I'm that to someone else
D
And now the circle doesn't fit it's little square
Em Dm11
It bulges with opportunity ... bulges
(Verse 2)
Em Dm11 C C
Is that a smile that hangs beneath your nose
Em Dm11 C C
Or are your eyes so wide they've pulled your mouth into a stupid pose
Em Dm11 C C
You don't have to ham it up for me or tell me how long you've
Em Dm11 C
Waited just to be with me
(Chorus)
D
I've been a long term disappointment to myself
Em Dm11
But it hits like a hammer when I'm that to someone else
D
And now the circle doesn't fit it's little square
Em Dm11
It bulges with opportunity ... bulges
(Bridge)
I don't know what these chords are called so bear with me.
F?? C?? Bb??
-0- -0- -0- -10- -10- -8- -0- -0- -0- -9- -0- -0- -10- -9- -7- -x- -10- -8-

(Chorus)
D
I've been a long term disappointment to myself
Em Dm11
But it hits like a hammer when I'm that to someone else
D
And now the circle doesn't fit it's little square
Em Dm11
It bulges with opportunity ... bulges
(Chorus)
D
I've been a long term disappointment to myself
Em Dm11
But it hits like a hammer when I'm that to someone else
D
And now the circle doesn't fit it's little square
Em Dm11
It bulges with opportunity ... bulges
(Outro)
|-0---2---2---0-0-|---2-2---2---0-0-|-0---2---2---0-0-|-2---2---2---0-0-| |-3---3---3---3-3-|---3-3---3---3-3-|-3---3---3---3-3-|-3---3---3---3-3-| |-2---2---2---2-2-|---2-2---2---2-2-|-0---0---0---0-0-|-0---0---0---2-2-| |-0---0---0---0-0-|---0-0---0---0-0-|-2---2---2---2-2-|-2---2---2---0-0-| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

(Lead Guitar)
E|-3----------2-------------| B|-3----------3----------3--| G|-0----------0----------0--| D|-2----------2----------2--| A|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|

While the rhythm guitar plays the chords the lead guitar does little riffs.
|-3-0-------------|----0----2-0-----|------0----------|-3-0-------------| |-----3-0---------|-----------------|-----------------|-----3-0---------| |---------3-0-2-0-|-----------------|-----------------|---------3-0-2-0-| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

That is played in the verse when there is no singing.
When there is singing the lead guitar strums an Em with an up-stroke everytime the
rhythm guitar comes round to an Em.
Em
|-0-----------| |--0----------| |---0---------| |----2--------| |-----2-------| |------0------|

(Lead guitar in the chorus while rhythm guitar is playing the D)
|----0-2-2-0-0----|----0-2-2-2-0----|----0-2-2-0-0----|----0-2-2-2-0----| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

(Lead guitar in the chorus while rhythm guitar is playing the Em and Dm11)
|----3-5-5-3-3----|----3-5-5-5-3----|----3-5-5-3-3----|----3-5-5-5-3----| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

This is how I think it goes anyway...
This is the acoustic version of the song NOT the studio version. So please don't
leave me loads of comments saying I'm wrong!!!
