Sit here on the stairs

If I can't have you right now

I'll wait dear

Sometimes I get so tense

To consider

D               Dsus2 D  Dsus4  D  Dsus2  D         line of lyrics when you
We don't fake it                                   play the 2nd Dsus2 chord)

Just wanted to say that I liked the Em variation. I think it brightens the song on the lyrics, ease, bright, fine and smile. Nice cover!

Sounds great... except for the Em's you added..... I couldn't figure out what sounded wrong until I read your comments... Other than that, great write up.
