CAPO 2

[Intro]

C Em Fmaj7 G6

[Verse 1]

I got the good side of things,

Left you with both of the rings,

Fmaj7

My fingers danced,

And swayed in the breeze,

The change in the wind took you down to your knees

I got the good side of you,

Sent it out into the blue,

Fmaj7

The people danced,

To the sound of your heart,

The world sang along to it falling apart

[Chorus]

But I sympathise,

And I recognise,

Fmaj7

And baby, I apologise,

That I got the good side,

The good side of things

Em Fmaj7 G6

[Verse 2]

I got the good side of life,

Travelled the universe twice,

Fmaj7

So many thoughts I wanted to share,

But I didn’t call because it wouldn’t be fair

Then I got the good side of new,

Found arms to fall right into,

Fmaj7

I know how it looked, It wasn’t the plan,

And someday I hope that you’ll understand,

[Chorus]

That I sympathise,

And I recognise,

Fmaj7

And baby, I apologise,

That I got the good side,

The good side of things

[Interlude]

C Am7

Ooh...Ooh-ooh...

Fmaj7 G6

Oooh...

[Verse 3]

I’m sure we’ll meet in the spring,

And catch up on everything,

Fmaj7

I’ll say I’m proud of all that you’ve done,

You taught me the ropes, and you taught me to love

[Chorus]

But I sympathise,

And I recognise,

Fmaj7

And baby, I apologise,

That I got the good side,

The good side of things

[Outro]

Sympathise,

Recognise,

Fmaj7

Apologise,
