Chords

First tab/chord dealie! You can be honest, but please be civil. This is what my ears heard and hands wanted to play. Played open E.
*Dm/G: E A D G B E
       3 X 3 2 3 X
*The Dm/G was a tough choice since I liked each chord sound. My better half pointed out the G is the bass chord likewise the Dm a treble. So you can play the Dm/G, either of the 2 or with someone & split them. Whew, the rest is pretty easy. :-) Verse 1:
   A        Dm/G                              A
 I          feel           like I could run away

G                    D
Looking at a darker day

        G                  A
Oh I'm pulling the shades away from my eyes

         A         Dm/G                    A                             
It's true      the moody  manners come and go

          G                      C
And it's better that you never know
CHORUS:
C               Fm
Some things are better left unsaid

C                Fm
Some strings are better left undone

C               Fm            A   A7   A  A7
Some hearts are better left unbroken

C              Fm
Some lives are better left untouched

C             Fm
Some lies are better off believed

C              Fm            A   A7   A  A7
Some words are better left unspoken
Verse 2:
A          Dm/G                         A    
My         ideas       seem to frighten you

        G                      D
Are you really that afraid to move

     G                             A
Oh I guess that it's your right to reason

A         G                              A
I'm still dealing with a force that's so strong

    G                     C
The force is stringing us along
CHORUS:
C               Fm
Some things are better left unsaid

C                Fm
Some strings are better left undone

C               Fm            A   A7   A  A7
Some hearts are better left unbroken

C              Fm
Some lives are better left untouched

C             Fm
Some lies are better off believed

C              Fm            A   A7   A  A7
Some words are better left unspoken
