Important notes: I tabbed this on an half step down guitar and I still think it sounds better like that.
For those who prefer you can click transpose "-5" and play it with a capo on the forth fret.
ALSO, there is a D/F# passage between the Em and the G, but it makes it more complicated to play, so I left it 
out. Eg. you would play Em and D/F# for 2 beats each and then G for 4 beats. 
Tunning: half-step down
Intro:     Em      G      Am    G  D  
If anyone Emasks, you never Gsaw me
And I Cknow you know Gbetter than to Dcall me
Let's just Emhide out under the cGovers
AmOne more secret Gbetween two old Dlovers
CWhat can it hurt?
EmI ain't hung up on you
DI ain't in love with you
GThis is just time that I'm Amwasting
EmOne or two little sips
DI'm alright, I can quit
GYou're just some wine that I'm Amtasting
CI don't have to have you
DI don't need to need you
EmJust a high that I'm cGhasing
CDon't think I'm coming back
DIt's just a relaEmpse
I know I Emsaid, I said it was Gover
But it's Chard when I Gmiss you to Dstay sober
So if I Emshow up here at your Gdoor again
AmOh, it's just me Gfalling off of Dthe wagon
CWhat can it hurt?
CI don't have to have you
DI don't need to need you
EmJust a high that I'm cGhasing
CDon't think I'm coming back
DIt's just a relaCpseD  C  D
