Shed Seven - Cry For Help
Bit moany, but an excellent song. Lenny, you're in heaven with me with this one :P
I can't decide if it's Cadd9 for the descending bit in the chorus, play it however you feel.

Verse
                   Em  G/sus4 
And it really hurts, when I'm thinking about you,
AmBut my bet is you feeEml the same,
And it just gets worse, all these promises were cruel,
But my bet is you will remain
Chorus
BmDid I ever tell you you shook me to the bone,
                                        C  G/sus4
When all you did was be yourself?
BmHave I ever told you that you lead the world alone?
                                       C  C-C/B-C/F#- C/G(x2)
And this is my cry for help
And it really hurts, when I'm thinking about you,
And I'm still crying from the pain,
And it only goes to show that I already know,
That I, I guess you will remain
Did I ever tell you you shook me to the bone,
When all you did was be yourself?
Have I ever told you that you lead the world alone?
And this is my cry for help
And this is my cry for help
And it really hurts, when I'm thinking about you,
And that don't sit too good with me,
And it just gets worse, all the promises so cruel,
But my bet is you will remain
Did I ever tell you you brought me to my knees,
When all you did was be yourself?
Have I ever told you that you made my whole world bleed?
And this is my cry for help
And this is my cry for help
