Chords

This is one of my favorite songs by The Proclaimers. It's a track off the album Hit The Highway released in 1994. I'm almost certain these are the correct chords. The strumming pattern of the recorded version is a bit different than how it's played live. Either way, it's fairly easy to pick up if you listen to the song. Enjoy :) [Intro] B
     B         G#m           C#m
Now I've got a question baby

               F#
[tab]         B               G#m
Cause I haven't seen any water

       C#m               F#
In the corners of your eyes

      B         G#m
For a day, or a week

     C#m         F#
Or a month, or a year

         B             G#m
Haven't seen much of you

          C#m         F#
Since you left me my dear

           B                 G#m
Can't you see that I'm hurting

         C#m       F#
How I'm falling apart

          B                G#m
Don't you care about my drinking

       C#m          F#
Or my poor lonely heart

  F#
I thought you liked football
You didn't mind those videos
        C#m
And my dog didn't mean

               F#
To ruin your clothes (he can't help it)

        B              G#m
Now you won't take my phone calls

    C#m                 F#
You sent my letters back

       B           G#m
You're paying a lawyer

   C#m                F#
To stab me in the back

       F#
Then I saw you on the street
You looked happy, that's a fact
      C#m                          F#
I'm impressed - it's a hell of an act

E
Angel - admit it, admit it

Em
Darlin' - admit it, admit it

     B                  D#m
Your love for me didn't die
It's just sleepin'
       C#m
And it wakes every night

       F#
To your weepin'
B G#m C#m F# B G#m C#m F#
      B                    C#m
Now I hope you can hear me

              F#
Wherever you are

      B           G#m
In a cheap hotel room

       C#m              F#
Or the back seat of a car

       F#
I make up those situations
I don't know if they're true
         C#m                    F#
But I'll tell you, for now, they'll do

E
Angel - admit it, admit it

Em
Darlin' - admit it, admit it

     B                  D#m
Your love for me didn't die
It's just sleepin'
       C#m
And it wakes every night

     F#
To your weeping'

    B    G#m
Now I've got a question baby

  C#m F#          E B
What makes you cry?
