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
