[Verse 1]
 
    C              C/B         Am                 F
I'm older than I'd wish to be, this town holds no more for me
F   C  G            D7                  F
All my life, I've tried to find another way

All my life, I've tried to make a better day
 
 
[Chorus]

It's hard enough being alone
Em                  Am
Sitting here by the phone
F
Waiting for my memories
            E    E7
To come and play

It's hard enough sitting there
Em                      Am
Rockin' in your rockin' chair

It's all too much for me to take
                E     E7
When you're not there

dunno about the oasis chord book, but i reckon c/b sounds better. also if , for the intro, u play the 1st half of the 'C' measure (ie first couple of strums) as normal C and the second half (next 2 strums) as X30010 (letting the D string ring by taking ur middle finger of the C chord) it kinda captures the bass note in the actual song, but on 1 guitar. Same for the C/B, play the 1st half of the measure X2X010 (making a point of muting the D string) and then releasing it for the second 2 strums. sounds wkd, enjoy.
