When descending the notes of the Bsus2 do the pulloff
with the little finger and then move that to 3rd fret
of D string - to fret - nice rolling sustained figure
[Repeat above once]

[Verse1]
They say that 
[F] these are not the [Fmaj7/A] best of times But 
[Gm7] they're the only [Bbsus2] times I've ever 
[F] known [Fmaj7/A] [Gm7] [Bbsus2] And I 
[F] believe there is a [Fmaj7/A] time for medi 
[Gm7] tation In [Bbsus2] cathedrals of our 
[C] own ([C] [G][C] [A7] Now I've 
[Dm] seen that sad sur [C] render in my 
[Bbsus2] lover's eyes [Bbsus2/A] And 
[G7sus4] I can only [G7] stand upon and 
[Cadd9] sympathize [C] For we are 
[Bb] always what our [F] situations [Gm7] hand us It's either 
[C] sadness or [Bbsus2] euphoria - [Eb] [Bbsus2] 
(drums in)

[Intro - again] 
[F] [Fmaj7/A] [Gm7] [Bbsus2]
[Am7] [C] [Bbsus2] [Bbsus2]

[Verse2]
So we'll 
[F] argue and we'll [Fmaj7/A] compromise
And [Gm7] realize that [Bbsus2] nothing's ever 
[F] changed [Fmaj7/A] [Gm7] [Bbsus2] ..For all our 
[F] mutual [Fmaj7/A] experience Our 
[Gm7] separate con [Bbsus2] clusions are the 
[C] same ([C] [G][C] [A7] .. Now we are 
[Dm] forced to recog [C] nize our inhu 
[Bbsus2] manity [Bbsus2/A] .. Our 
[G7sus4] reason co [G7] exists with our in 
[Cadd9] sanity [C] .. And though we 
[Bb] choose between re [F] ality and [Gm7] madness .. It's either 
[C] sadness or [Bbsus2] euphoria [Eb] [Bbsus2] 

[Solo - Intro - again] 
[F] [Fmaj7/A] [Gm7] [Bbsus2]
[Am7] [C] [Bbsus2] [Bbsus2]
[F] [Fmaj7/A] [Gm7] [Bbsus2]
[C] ([C] [G][C] [A7] 

[Verse3]
How 
[Dm] thoughtlessly we [C] dissipate our 
[Bbsus2] energies [Bbsus2/A] Per 
[G7sus4] haps we don't ful [G7] fill each other's 
[Cadd9] fantasies [C] .. And as we 
[Bb] stand upon the [F] ledges of our [Gm7] lives With our 
[C] respective simi [Bbsus2] larities [Eb] [Bbsus2] It's either 
[C] sadness or [F] euphoria. 

[Outro]
[F] [Fmaj7/A] [Gm7] [Bbsus2]
[F] Wo [Fmaj7/A] oo woh oo [Gm7] oh oo [Bbsus2] woh oh oo
[F] oh [Fmaj7/A] ooh [Gm7] wo ooh [Bbsus2] woh oh oo
(slows done to end)
[Am7] woh oh [C] oh [Bbsus2] oh [C - (C C Cadd9 C Cadd6)]
[F]
