Great song by a great artist.  This is basic and mostly correct.  The end of the 
chorus as you sing "Tell the Truth" needs a little work.  Let me know if you have 
any recommendations to improve the chords.  Thanks!

Verse 2
When I think about our love

Is all the time I won't get back
Bridge 2
Don't you think you've done enough
Why are you still here
Why don't you do what you're good at
And just disappear
'Cos you were fool enough to come here
You ain't smart enough to leave
I've forgiven you your sins
I accept your apologies
It ain't what you did to me
It's more what you couldn't do
Like keep your hands to yourself
And tell the truth
And tell the truth
You were fool enough to come here
You ain't smart enough to leave
I've forgiven you your sins
I accept your apologies
It ain't what you did to me
It's more what you couldn't do
Like keep your hands to yourself
And tell the truth
And tell the truth
