Pretty simple song to play from The Widowmaker. The high B and e strings can be played 
open throughout the verses for a fuller sound. There is also a second guitar that plays a 
melody in the second verse that's easy enough to add to the chords if you're playing it by 
yourself.

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

Did you think he was sweet?

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

Did you think he could change?

Did you think "Oh, there's good in him

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

I can tell."

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

And whether I'm right

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

And whether you know it though

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

Would you say "it's over now,

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

so go to hell."

E Em/G A

Or would you say "There, that's love.

Cadd2 E Em/G A

It's on the table my dear.

E Em/G A

There, that's love.

Cadd2 E

It's on the table

Em/G A

My dear."

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

We had a house

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

We had a car that year

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

We had a goodness of heart

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

You can't keep away

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

And if I came home

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

And if I slept in my brother's home

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

Would you say "there's good in him

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

I can tell."

My dear."

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

But I was too dumb to recognize

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

Yeah, it didn't look like you

Asus2 E/G# E5/B Emaj7/B

And I was too young to realize

Asus2 E/G# C#m Emaj7/B

Something was true

Asus2 E/G# C#m Emaj7/B

Lord lift me up over all gentlemen

Asus2 E/G# C#m Emaj7/B

'cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong

Asus2 E/G# C#m Emaj7/B

Lord lift me up over all gentlemen

Asus2 E/G# C#m Emaj7/B

'cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong

Asus2 E/G# C#m Emaj7/B

Lord lift me up outta the slum tenements

Asus2 E/G# C#m Emaj7/B

'cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong

Asus2 E/G# C#m Emaj7/B

Lord lift me up over all gentlemen

Asus2 E/G# C#m Emaj7/B

'cause we will never know if it's right or it's wrong

E Em/G A

And then there, that's love.
