Hey guys :) I really wanted to know how to play this song, so I looked up on here to
find a tab and found out that there are some but they aren't the greatest.
I then went onto Youtube and found a video of Adele playing it live and after an hour of
studying it, I finally came up with a tab :) hope you like it :)
this is my first tab as well but it sounds pretty accurate Lol :D
Standard tuning and very easy to play, all you have to do is listen to the song for
timing :)
Good Luck :)

You said I'm stubborn and I never give in
I think you're stubborn 'cept you're always softening
You say I'm selfish, I agree with you on that
I think you're giving, I think way too much in fact
I say we've only known each other a year
You say "pfft, I've known you longer my dear"
You like to be so close, I like to be alone
I like to sit on chairs and you prefer the floor
Walking with each other, think we'll never match at all,
chorus:
But we do, but we do, but we do

I thought I knew myself, somehow you know me more
I've never known this, never before
You're the first to make up whenever we argue
I don't know who I'd be if I didn't know you
You're so provocative, I'm so conservative
You're so adventurous, I'm so very cautious,
combining, You'd think we wouldn't,
Chorus:
we do, but we do, but we do, but we do
