Verse
C
i wish i could live free
Em
i hope it's not beyond me
Am F
Settling down it takes time
C
And one day we'll live together
Em
And live will be better
Am F
I have it all here, yeah in my mind
C Em Am F
Baby you know one day you'll slow
C Em Am F
Baby, my heart has been breaking
C Em Am F
Baby you know one day you'll slow
C Em Am F
Baby, my heart has been breaking
C Em Am F
I gave a lot to you
C Em Am F
I take a lot from you too
C Em Am F
You slave a lot for me
C Em Am F
Guess you could say I gave you my edge
C Em
But I can't pretend I don't need to defend
Am F
Some part of me from you
C Em Am F
I know I've spent some time a-crying
C Em
But I can't pretend I don't need to defend
Am F
Some part of me from you
C Em Am F
I know I've spend some time ohh-crying

and that's where i end it... i usually just repeat the chord progression a couple more
and that's it. the rest(breakdown section) doesn't really go with an acoustic sound...
