[Verse 1]
C F
By then she'd sang in every bar
   Dm
And when the world said no she'd ask the stars
    G                                      Bb
If they'd ever thought of setting her up
Bb             Dm
And he was only half a man
Eb                      Gm
He never really watched the news
 
 
[Verse 2]
Gm     F
I guess they fell in love, if you can call it that
Dm                                                 Bm
And for a couple of years, how smooth things went, you know
                                       G        Bb
Desperate people, they go to desperate measures
Bb               Dm
But she so badly wanted kids
Eb                            Gm
She said, "It's what I'm meant to do"
 
Ab Eb G
 
 
[Chorus 1]
G                  C                G          Am          C
And he'd tell her, "All I want to do is stand next to you
C               G     C   Am
All I want to do is stand next to you"
Am                  C           G
Well you need to get on top of me
 
(All I want to do is stand next to you)
Am
And do this thing before I'm fifty
            C
And dry as a bone
 
(All I want to do is stand next to you)
 G               Am
I may as well be alone
 
Oh, I hate you so
 
 
[Bridge]
F
Bill and I, we were sitting there
       Dm
When the doc came in
                     Bm
I gripped my chair, he said
                                   C
"I'm afraid I have some bad news
Bb                   Dm
Though he'll never be in your arms
 Eb                Gm
He'll always be in your heart"
 
Ab Eb G
 
 
[Chorus 2]
C                          Am
Oh, if I could only give my breath to you
C                                Am
Watch you crawl around and stand next to you
C                  G        Am
Oh, if I could only give my breath to you
C               G                Am
Watch you crawl around and stand next to you
Am                C         Am
Oh, if I could only give my breath to you
           C                                         Am
Watch you crawl around and stand right there next to you
 
 
[Outro]
Am                  C
To you, oh da-da-da-da-da-da
    Am    C
Oh, da-da-da-da-da
C
Oh
C           Am
Never in my arms, always in my heart
N.C
Never in my arms

Great tab, thank you lots. I believe the chorus just follows a C, G, Am pattern throughout though, playing the Am for 2 bars and C and G for 1. Except for the outro where I do think it's just C and Am (as you tabbed). But definitely a fantastic job on an amazing song though.
