For the interludes I recommend the picking pattern bass-1-2-3 - this is 
simplified but works good enough, I think. Thanks to my friend T.G.,
who helped me to work out the core of this tab.
[Verse]
CmWhy sing a lonely song? The whole world knows that love goes wrong.
FmWhy loose a heart that isn't bGmroken?
It isn't bEbroken, it can't be bGmroken.
DmLife's just a show for free, come along and watch with me!
The Gmonly sins are words unsAmpoken,
Words unspFoken, never sAmpoken.
[Interlude]
Dm Am Dm Am
[Verse]
CmSweet things come and go. Give me shame, I'll give you wow.
To Fmlive for love isn't so Gmeasy!
It isn't Ebeasy, it won't be Gmeasy!
DmHow all good men try, look around and wonder why
GmCan they shape this world to plAmease me,
Can they plFease me, should they plAmease me?
