| C | C/B | Am | F G | C | C/B | Am | F G |
 
C               C/B            Am  | Am C/B |
Why ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah 
C               C/B            Am  | Am C/B |
Why ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
 
C               C/B                     Am
. How many times    do I have to try to tell you
         F         G   C                C/B    Am  | F G |
That I'm sorry for the things I've done,    ooooh
    C                               C/B
But when I start to try to tell you that's when you have to tell me
Am                F           G       C    C/B  Am  | F G |
Hey, this kind of trouble's only just begun,    yeah
 
D                      B
I tell myself too many times why don't you ever learn
   F#m                 G    Gadd9 (Gadd9 walks the bass note up to A)
To keep your big mouth shut
D                             B
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words that keep on
F#m               G     Gadd9
Falling from your mouth 
Fmaj7                   Am7 (Am7 walks the bass note down to E)
Falling from your mouth
D
Falling from your mouth, tell me
 
C               C/B            Am  | F G |
Why ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah 
C               C/B            Am  | F G |
Why ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
 
C                       C/B                        Am
. I may be mad I may be blind I may be viciously unkind 
          F               G      C       C/B    Am  | F G |
But I can still read what you're thinking,   ooooh
C                               C/B
And I've heard it said too many times that you'd be better off
Am                      F             G  C       C/B  Am  | F G |
Besides why can't you see this boat is sinking   (this boat is sinking)
 
D                            B
Let's go down to the water's edge
           F#m             G      Gadd9
And we can cast away those doubts 
D                             B
Some things are better left unsaid 
               F#m            G    Gadd9
But they still turn me inside out
Fmaj7               Am7
Turning inside out 
D
Turning inside out tell me
 
C               C/B            Am  | F    G |
Why ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah    tell me
C               C/B            Am  | F G |
Why ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
 
C
This is the book I never read   
C/B
These are the words I never said
Am
This is the path I'll never tread 
F                                 G
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
C
This is the joy that's seldom spread   
C/B
These are the tears, the tears we shed
Am
This is the fear this is the dread 
F                         G
These are the contents of my head
C                                C/B
These are the years that we have spent
                           Am
And this is what they represent and this is how I feel
F                   G
. Do you know how I feel? 
C                        C/B
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel
Am                                 | F G |
I don't think you know what I feel
C  C/B                                  Am  | F G |
     I don't think you know what I feel
C
You don´t know what I feel

Good tab! I think Bm sounds better than B though. And I think the short chords should just be played as notes instead of full chords. So I think it be something like this in the chorus: e|------0--| B|------1--| G|------0--| D|------2--| A|--0h2-3--| E|------X--| Not sure for the rest. Great chords anyway. Cheers!

There are too many inaccuracies here to list them. It’s just bad.
