Tabbed by Dave Bloom

  An awesome display of lyircal power.  So easy to understand
but not given to us bluntly, just like to guitar work...  
It is a real easy song to play, basic, and unique.

Words...


   You make it hard to breathe

   It's as if i'm suffocating

   And when you're next to me

   I can feel your heart beat through my skin

   It makes me sad to think

   This could all be for nothing

   I wish there was a way

   A way for you to see inside me

   I never felt this way

   About anyone or anything


   Tell me

                        D
   What do I have to do

                 F#   
   To make you happy

                        D
   What do I have to do 

                       F#
   To make you understand

                        D
   What do I have to do

                 F# 
   To make you want me

              D    
   But if I can't make you want me

   E
   What do I have to do...


  (RIFF 1)
   I know exactly what you're thinking


   But I swear this time I will not let you down


   I'm not as selfish as I used to be


   That was a part of me that never made me proud


   Right now I think I would try anything

                                           
   Anything at all to keep you satisfied


   God I hope you see


   What losing you would do to me


   All I want is one more chance


   Tell me


                        D
   What do I have to do

                  (RIFF 1)  
   To make you happy
     
                        D
   What do I have to do 

                     (RIFF 1)
   To make you understand

                        D
   What do I have to do

                     (RIFF 1)
   To make you want me

              D
   But if I can't make you want me

         E       
   Just tell me tell me


            D
   How can I


            F#
   How can I


            D
   How can I


                        D
   What do I have to do

                    (RIFF 1)  
   To make you want me

                        D
   What do I have to do

                     (RIFF 1)
   To make you understand

                       D
   What do I have to do

                     (RIFF 1)
   To make you love me

              D
   But if I can't make you love me

         E
   Just tell me


   What do I have to do


   To forget about you
