[Verse]
 
    A
In many ways
        Bm7
They'll miss the good old days
D        A
Someday, someday
 
          A
Yeah, it hurts to say
    Bm7
But I want you to stay
D          A
Sometimes, sometimes
 
     A
When we was young
    Bm7
Oh, man, did we have fun
D        A
Always, always
 
 A
Promises
     Bm7
They break before they're made
D          A
Sometimes, sometimes
 
 
[Chorus]
 
    A              E7           F#m
Oh, Maya says I'm lacking in depth
D             A
I will do my best
    A                E7        F#m
You say you want to stay by my side
D                        A
Darling, your head's not right
      A                E7               F#m
I see alone we stand, together we fall apart
      D                 A
Yeah, I think I'll be alright
    A             E7          F#m
I'm working so I won't have to try so hard
D                    A
Tables they turn sometimes
        E
Oh, someday
E
Now I ain't wasting no more time

[Verse]
 
     A
And now my fears
       Bm7
They come to me in threes
D      A
So I  sometimes

Say fate my friend
    Bm7
You say the strangest things
D       A
I find sometimes

I think the intro is more like this: [tab]e|-5-7-----5-7-----9-7-----7-5--------------------| B|-5-5-----7-7-----7-7-----5-5--------------------| G|-6-6-----7-7-----7-7-----6-6--------------------| D|------------------------------------------------| A|------------------------------------------------| E|------------------------------------------------|[/tab]

A/Bm/D/A in the verse sounds right but it is actually A/D/D/A. The bass plays A/B/D/A which makes it sound like the guitar is playing Bm but if you listen closely and watch live videos Valensi doesn't play Bm. Great job though, 5 stars.
