where the *** are above, you need to bend down from
12th to 11th - the 12th fret note is reached by
fretting the 11th and bending up 1/2 note, then slowly
release the bend back, timing the bend so that the
11th fret note is reached at the point shown above


verse 1

chords

Bb  6  8  8  7  6  6
Gm  3  5  5  3  3  3
Cm  8  10 10 8  8  8
Eb  11 13 13 12 11 11

Bb
   when I look...
Gm              Bb               
   oh, but I... feel
         Cm
...while    and you...
Bb
   and I'll sleep...
Gm                     Bb
   and it won't be lo-ong
         Cm         Bb
...while    then...down
            (Bb Cm Eb) x 2
...walk away


verse 2

Bb
   when you say...
Gm                 Bb
   oh, but I...in you
            Cm        
...forget it   no-oooh
Bb
   when you sleep...
Gm            Bb
  and it...lo-ong
         Cm              Bb
...while    when you...smile
                    (instrumental
...long blonde hair         break)


verse 3 - I think it's the same as verse 1, it sounds
a bit like it should be different but I think only the
bass changes and the guitar plays the same chords as
before...

then it's a long instrumental break, then end by
striking a Bb chord...all there is to it
