(Danny Jones & Vicky Jones)
These are not the actual right chords Because I think Danny tuned his guitar down 
or something. Just not the standard tuning.
However, these chords are for a standard tuned guitar.
Chords needed:
   A(577655)
   D(x57775) you can do this too (557775) it's sounds good.
   E(x79997) or (079997) doesn't really matter.
 F#m(x9 11 11 10 9)
   E(022100) (end chord of the bridge)
A(Oh-ohh) (Oh-ohh) (DOh-ohh) (Oh-ohh)
AMmmhm (Oh-ohh) (Oh-ohh) DMmmhm (Oh-ohh) (Oh-ohh)
AHonesty, was all I ever wanted you to Dshow to me,
and all I ever needed, now you're Agone from me,
and how did this happen after so Dlong.
AFinally, can we just have some time so you can Dtalk to me,
or can't you Esee,
That Awe've no time, to waste our lives,
and DI don't have all the answers.
So I Aclose my eyes, and I hope I'm doing Dright.
AYou and me, in your head we were always gonna be Dhappy,
so are we nothing more than just a Amemory,
so wipe away those tears and go be Dstrong.
I Ahesitate, to tell you what im feeling,
baby, DI'm afraid what to Esay.
That Awe've no time, to waste our lives,
and DI don't have all the answers.
So I Aclose my eyes, and I hope I'm doing Dright.
Yeah
ENothing ever changes when we mF#make up,
you Ejust stay at my house when I'm in F#mtown.
ESo inevitably we must Dbreak up.
E (open. One strum)
Sorry if I'm outta line..
But Awe've no time, to waste our lives,
and DI don't have all the answers.
So I Aclose my eyes, and I hope I'm doing Dright.
But Awe've no time (we've no time)
     (Oh-ohh)
To waste our lives
       (Oh-ohh)
And DI don't have all the answers
     (Oh-ohh)               (Oh-ohh)
So I Aclose my eyes (close my eyes)
        (Oh-ohh)
And I hope I'm doing Dright
          (Oh-ohh)   (Oh-ohh) 
(Oh-ohh)
