[Verse]
E             A    ->          F#m
I woke today, felt your side of bed,
E                     B                     C#m ~> F#m E
The covers were still warm where you'd been laying.
E        C#m Dmaj9  A            ->          F#m
You were gone,      my heart was filled with dread.
E                B             C#m ~> F#m E
You might not be sleeping here again.    
 
[Chorus]
Dmaj9                A          F#m              D      A  E
But its all right, I love you.  That's not gonna change.
F#m                   B              E      G#sus4  G#  C#m
Run me round, make me hurt again and again.
C#m            B        A
But I'll still sing you love songs.
E       A      B          G#   C#m  A
Written in the letters of your name.
E             E (D bass)  ->        A       ->        F#m
And brave the storm to come, for it surely looks like rain.
 
[Verse]
E                                 A         ->          F#m
Did you ever listen to the sound, of street cats making love,
E                         B                             C#m ~> F#m E
And guess from their cries that you were listening to them fight?
E        C#m Dmaj9 A               ->                          F#m
Well you know,     hate's just the last thing they're thinking of.
E                      B                   C#m ~> F#m E
They're only trying to make it through the night.
 
(Instrumental Chorus)
 
E                        A            ->           F#m
I only want to hold you, I don't want to tie you down,
E                   B                  C#m ~> F#m E
Or fence you in the lines I might have drawn.
E              C#m Dmaj9  A       ->          F#m
It's just that I've gotten  used to having you around.
E                       B                 C#m ~> F#m E
My landscape would be empty if you were gone.
 
[Outro]
E             E (D bass)  ->        A       ->        F#m
And brave the storm to come, for it surely looks like rain.

It seems during the look likes rain, feels like rain... part at the end (in live versions) just follows the E, D, A, F# pattern. It felt right to leave that F# out at times.
