        I've tried best I can to transcribe the piano part for this song for 
guitar.  It's a pretty smooth sweet song to play.  The interlude is described 
without tab, unfortuantely I have too much homework to do to tab that out, 
but it's pretty simple.

        The interlude (with is also the ending) is simply alternating between 
the C and G chords.  Finger pick them out in a similar fashion as above.

Second Verse:

I want somebody who cares
for me passionately
with every thought and with every breath
someone who'll help me see things in a different light
all the things i detest i will almost like
I don't want to be tied to anyones strings
I'm carefully trying to stay clear of those things
but when I'm asleep, i want somebody
who will put their arms around me kiss me tenderley
though things like this, make me sick
in a case like this
I'll get away with it
