[Chorus 1]
C Gsus4 C F Maureen how I wish I could have been C Gsus4 C F A better man than the one that you have seen Am7 Gsus4 C F Too scared to live and too afraid to dream Gsus4 G Maureen
[Verse 1]
F C G Am7 I know I've underwhelmed and I've overstayed F C G Am7 And I never say the right things at the right time in the right way F C G Am7 I know I've cost you more than I've ever helped you to save F G Maureen I've seen F C G Am7 That now I've let you down more than I've lifted you up F C G Am7 And I couldn't hold you close so I've been holding you up F C G Am7 And I know I've always been the empty half of the cup F Gsus4 That you keep so clean
[Chorus 2]
C Gsus4 C F Maureen how I wish you could have seen C Gsus4 C F A better man than the one that I have been Am7 Gsus4 C F Too brittle to bend and too straight to lean Gsus4 Gsus4 Maureen
[Verse 2]
F C G Am7 Ah but you've overridden and you've undermined F C G Am7 And you often say the cruelest things at the hardest of times F C G Am7 You've not forgotten or forgiven any one of my crimes F G Maureen come clean F C G Am7 For now you treat me like one of your household chores F C G Am7 And though I hate to hear you crying outside your bedroom door F C G Am7 I just can't do this deafening silence any Maureen F Gsus4 I'm tired of this scene
[Chorus 3]
C Gsus4 C F Maureen how I wish you would have been C Gsus4 C F Willing to meet me somewhere in-between Am7 Gsus4 C F The devi-i-il and the deep blue sea Gsus4 Gsus4 Maureen

F* C* G* Am7* D'you remember how I used to make you laugh F* C* G* Am7* And walking by the harbour as light turned to dark F* C* G* Am7* The sunsets soft as silk on my mothers scarf F* Was it all a dream Gsus4* Cmaj7* Maureen
