[Verse]
           D                    A                 G                     Em
Ive been waiting for months, waiting for years, waiting for you to change.
              D                              A
Aw, but there aint much thats dumber, there aint much thats dumber
      G                       Em
than pinning your hopes on a change in another.
 
 
[Chorus]
    D               A       Bm                             Em
And I, yeah I still need you, but what goods that gonna do?
D           A              G                 D
Needing is one thing, and getting- gettings another.
 
For the solo, you can play the approximate chords, D A Bm
 
 
[Verse]
           D                A
So I been sitting around, wasting my time,
  G                       Em
wondering what you been doing.
           D                       A
Aw, and it aint real forgiving, it aint real forgiving
G                          Em
sitting here pictureing someone else living.
 
 
[Chorus]
D                    A        Bm                              Em
And I , yeah I still need you, but what goods that gonna do?
D          A               G                    D
Needing is one thing, and getting- gettings another.
 
 
[Verse]
          D                  A                 G                 Em
Ive been hoping for months, hoping for years, hoping I might forget.
            D                        A
Aw, but it dont get much dumber, it dont get much dumber
      G                  Em
then trying to forget a girl when you love her.
     D               A            Bm                      Em
And I, yeah I still need you, but what goods that gonna do?
D          A              G                        D
Needing is one thing, and getting- gettings another.
 
Playing the Em at the end of the chorus didnt sound right because the solo
usuallys starts - so the D's at the end basically represent that :P
 
The last bits just incredibly confusing :P
 
If you think this is wrong, or a bit off, do tell me!

The B chord should definitely be a Bm and the Em should be a G chord after the B in the lines of "but what goods that gonna do..." Otherwise this is great...I've been waiting for a someone to do this song for a while.

Em is correct on the first line, but the change from B to Em is totally out of whack. Should be Bm -> G

I think the Em is supposed to be an E and B is supposed to be Bm It sounds better to me that way. great tab, otherwise
