D        A            C      G         A5
If I were a fighter I'd probably kick your ass
    D                  A
But since I'm such a lover
           C           G            A5
I'll just have to let these things pass

:

           G         D/F#
Because as time goes by
         G       D
I can no longer deny
D       G         E7
That a part of me died
       G        A      D
When I met miss understanding

D                           E7
Baby, baby, baby, don't you know me
D                           E7
Baby, baby, baby, can't control me
Gm             A
I was born a butterfly
D      D/C#    D/C
With a twinkle in my eye

:

       G         D/F#
And as time goes by
D         G      D
I can no longer deny
D       G          E7
That a part of me died
       G         A      C
When I met miss understandings

[middle eight]:

C    G
I've held so long,
C               G
Just to find I took you wrong,
     C                    G
It's you that's been here all along.
    D       C     C# D  E7
In truth together we belong,
      G   A      D
So I left Mr. Demanding, I did.

D                            E7
Baby, baby, baby, don't you know me
D                             E7
Believe me baby, no one can console me
Gm               A
I have lived a thousand lives
D      D/C#     D/C
With a penchant for disguise

[outro]:

D      G        D/F#
What I tried to hide
          G         D
Is that I knew you lied
         G             D
And it cranked up my pride
D    G        D
So incredibly high
D      G         D/F#
And as time goes by
D        G       D
I can no longer deny
D      G          E7
That a part of me died
D      G        A     D  D/C# Bm Bm/A
When I met miss understanding
       G        A     D  D/C# Bm Bm/A
When I met miss understanding
        G         A      D   A  C
I don't need miss understandings
G   A5
Bye bye...
