[Verse 1 - Drums stop] (Down octave to rest the voice)
At [Gm] first I was afraid, I was [Cm] petrified,
Kept thinking [F] I could never live without you [Bbmaj7] by my side.
But then I [Ebmaj7] spent so many nights, thinking [Am7b5] how you did me wrong,
And I grew [Dsus4] strong; and I learned [D] how to get along.
[Drums back in- Vocals back up an octave]
And so you're [Gm] back, from outer [Cm] space,
I just walked [F] in to find you here, with that sad
[Bbmaj7] look upon your face.
I should have [Ebmaj7] changed that stupid lock,
I should have [Am7b5] made you leave your key,
If I had [Dsus4] known for just one second, you'd be
[D] back to bother to me
[Chorus]
Go on now, [Gm] go; walk out the [Cm] door;
Just turn a [F] round now, 'cos you're not [Bbmaj7] welcome any more.
[Ebmaj7] Weren't you the one who tried to [Am7b5] hurt me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd [Dsus4] crumble; did you think I'd [D] lay down and die?
Oh no, not [Gm] I; I will sur [Cm] vive,
Oh, as [F] long as I know how to love, I [Bbmaj7] know I'll stay alive.
I've got [Ebmaj7] all my life to live, I've got [Am7b5] all my love to give,
And I'll sur [Dsus4] vive, I will sur [D] vive, cos I'M OUTTA LOVE

[Verse 1 - B is Bsus4, A is Asus2]
Her [E] name is Noelle [B]

I got [E] gym class in half [A] an hour.
[E] Oh, how she [B] rocks,
In [E] keds and tube [A] socks,
But [C#m] she doesn't know [A] who I am [B]
And [C#m] she doesn't give [A] a damn [B] about me.
[Chorus 1]
'Cause [E] I'm just a teenage [A] dirtbag [B] ba [C#m] by [G#m]

Her [E] boyfriend's a dick [B]
[E] and he brings a [A] gun to school,
[E] And he'd simply kick [B]
My [E] ass if he knew [A] the truth.
[E] He lives on my [B] block
[E] And he drives and I [A] rock
But [C#m] she doesn't know [A] who I am [B]
And [C#m] she doesn't give [A] a damn [B] about me.

[E] Man, I feel like [B] mould,
It [E] 's prom night and [A] I am lonely.
[E] Lo and behold: [B]
She's [E] walking over [A] to me.
[E] This must be [B] fake,
My [E] lip starts to [A] shake.
But [C#m] How does she know [A] who I am [B]
And [C#m] How does she give [A] a damn [B] about me.
[Chorus 3] (same chords but softer than previous choruses,
possibly pluck certain notes)
I've got two
[E] tickets to [A] Iron [B] Maiden [C#m] baby [G#m]
Come [E] with me Fri [A] day, don't [B] say ma [C#m] ybe. [G#m]

[Intro]
[E]
[Verse - Play add6, maj7 riff throughout all]
I [E] call you when I need you, my heart's on fire
(riff - E Eadd6-022120 Emaj7-022444 E)
You [E] come to me, come to me wild and wired
When you come to [C#m] me
Give me everything I [A] need [A] (ring - drums stop then back in)
Give me a [E] lifetime of promises and a world of dreams
Speak the language of love like you know what it means
ohh, it can't be [C#m] wrong
Take my heart and make it [A] stronger baby
[B] [B] [B] N.C.
[Chorus]
You're simply the best [E] ,

better than all the rest (riff again)
Better than [C#m] anyone, anyone I've [B7] ever met
I'm stuck on your [E] heart, (riff) I hang on every word you say (riff)
Tear us a [C#m] part, baby I would [B7] rather be dead
[Verse]
In your heart [E] I see the stars of every night and every day
In your eyes I get lost, I get washed away
Just as [C#m] long as I'm here in your arms
I could be in no [A] better place
[B] [B] [B] N.C.
[Chorus]
You're simply the best [E] (riff), better than all the rest (riff)
Better than [C#m] anyone, anyone I've [B7] ever met
I'm stuck on your [E] heart (riff), I hang on every word you say
Tear us a [C#m] part, baby I would [B7] rather be dead
[Bridge - TOTAL HEAD VOICE]
[A] Each time you leave me I start losing control
You're [C#m] walking away with my heart and my soul
[A] I can feel you even when I'm alone
[B] Oh baby, don't let [C#] go
(Key change to F#)
[Sax Solo]
[F#] [F#] [F#] [F#]
[D#m] [C#7]
[Chorus - TOTAL HEAD VOICE]
You're the best [F#] , better than all the rest
Better than [D#m] anyone, anyone I've [C#7] ever met
I'm stuck on your [F#] heart, and hang on every word you say
Tear us a [D#m] part, baby I would [C#7] rather be dead
Oh, you're the best [F#] .. (ring)
