Simpler version for acoustic guitar. Cuts out the long build up to the bridge and a slightly modified outro which i think is more suitable for a solo acoustic version.Was this info helpful?

[Intro]
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
 
 
[Verse 1]
G                          Cadd9
Danny ran into some complications
G                             Cadd9
He falls asleep during conversations
G                                                Cadd9
He's gotta search the street when he's on vacation
G                                           Cadd9
The worst thing is that I'm in the same situation
D Dsus4 D
 
 
[Chorus]
Cadd9     D
And all I do is sit and think about you
Cadd9 D               Em
If I knew what you'd do
Cadd9                      D         Em
Collapse my veins, wearing beautiful shoes
Cadd9                   D        Em
It's not living if it's not with you
 
 
[Verse 2]
G                                     Cadd9
And Danny says we're living in a simulation
G                          Cadd9
But he works in a petrol station
G                                     Cadd9
He says it all began with his operation
G                                                       Cadd9
And I know you think you're sly but you need some imagination
D Dsus4 D
 
[Chorus]
Cadd9     D
And all I do is sit and think about you
Cadd9 D              Em
If I knew what you'd do
Cadd9                      D         Em
Collapse my veins, wearing beautiful shoes
Cadd9                   D        Em
It's not living if it's not with you
Cadd9 D
All I do is sit and drink without you
Cadd9 D            Em
If I choose then I lose
Cadd9                      D        Em
Distract my brain from the terrible news
Cadd9                   D        Em
It's not living if it's not with you
 
 
[Interlude]
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
 
[Bridge]
G
I can't stop sweating or control my feet
Cadd9
Got a 20-stone monkey that I just can't beat
G
I can stage a situation, but I just can't eat
D
And there's a feeling, you're replacing embrace, it's true that...
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Cadd9       D
   ...All I do is sit and think about you
Cadd9 D              Em
If I knew what you'd do
Cadd9                      D         Em
Collapse my veins, wearing beautiful shoes
Cadd9                   D        Em
It's not living if it's not with you
Cadd9 D
All I do is sit and drink without you
Cadd9 D            Em
If I choose then I lose
Cadd9                      D        Em
Distract my brain from the terrible news
Cadd9                   D        Em
It's not living if it's not with you
 
 
[Outro]
Cadd9                          D       Em
Oh, I'll try to get a job in a bank, I think
Cadd9                          D           Em
Danny spent the time trying to pack in the drinks for me
Cadd9             D                Em
I feel sick and I know I that I'll lose but
Cadd9                   D        Em
It's not living if it's not with you
Cadd9                   D        Em
It's not living if it's not with you
Cadd9                      D        Em
Distract my brain from the terrible news
Cadd9                   D        Em
It's not living if it's not with you

Great chart. I've got some more precise but complicated additions for the verse - probably for pianists and bassists: Eb, Ab/C, Dbadd9 Eb/G, Ab, Dbadd9
+2
EdwardTeacher
And every chorus has an alternate Ab/C in it. C#add9, Eb, A/C C#add9, Eb, Fm Repeat
+2
