intro – walkdown ( emphasise bass notes , listen to the song for dynamics/rhythm etc ) :

C C/B Am Am7/G D7/F# F

same chord sequence repeats throughout verses E . G .

C C/B Am Am7/G
take the m for me and the y for you
D7/F# F
out of family and it all falls through
C C/B Am Am7/G
we’ve got to love each other every day
D7/F# F
instead of hoping it might stay that way

now , i’ve got friends who are telling me
they’re living in clover
but lose the C for commitment and the l for love
and it’s over , baby , it’s all over now

bridge :
G Am
i’m not thinking about the things you said
F C C/B
as we lay awake last night in bed
G Am
i’m just happy to be by your side
F D G ( see below )
when we’re rolling in the sheets or tumbling in the tide

you keep on come telling me all about your problems
let’s pull the y off of your and throw it on the fire
and make ’em our problems , baby
our problems now

take the m for me and the y for you
out of family and it all falls through
we’ve got to love each other every day
instead of hoping it might stay that way

your problems , baby
make ’em our problems now
your problems , baby
make ’em our problems now
