I play this without a capo, I don't think its the same key that she sings it in,
but you could always transpose it.
 
 
[Verse 1]
G                              D
It's like the t-shirt that I'm never gonna wear again
Am                     C
But I can't throw away
G                                  D
And I€can't…stand the thought…of not talking to you one…day
Am                    C
Forgetting our old ways
 
 
[Pre Chorus]
    G      D    Am     C
We had to say goodbye
 
 
[Chorus]
                   G
I know I'm being selfish
                 D
And I've got no right
                  Am                 C
But I can't help thinking about you tonight
                   G
And I don't wanna say it
                   D
'Cause I know it's bad
                   Am                    C
But I don't want somebody having what we had
                 G
I know I'm being stupid
                 D
But I just can't stop
                      Am                    C
Thinking that you're with somebody and I'm not
                   G
And I don't wanna say it
                    D
'Cause I know it's bad
                      Am                     C
But I don't want somebody having what we had
 
 
[Verse 2]
            G                         D
I've still got the pictures from the memories that we once made
Am
Can't seem to let them go
C
I thought that we'd grow old
G                     D
Down to see you happy
                       Am
But I don't want to see
                 C
you happy without me
 
 
[Pre Chorus]
    G      D    Am     C
We had to say goodbye
 
 
[Chorus]
                   G
I know I'm being selfish
                 D
And I've got no right
                  Am                 C
But I can't help thinking about you tonight
                   G
And I don't wanna say it
                   D
'Cause I know it's bad
                   Am                    C
But I don't want somebody having what we had
                 G
I know I'm being stupid
                 D
But I just can't stop
                      Am                    C
Thinking that you're with somebody and I'm not
                   G
And I don't wanna say it
                    D
'Cause I know it's bad
                      Am                     C
But I don't want somebody having what we had

I think what might help is that the chord switches in different spots :) so for example, the G chord lasts the first two lines, then you play D for the next 2 lines etc.

I think the capo placement is good on the 5th fret (for a female voice)

Best capo for male voice is capo 3, thanks for the tab, it helps a lot! :)
