[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/matthew_sweet/thought_i_knew_you_crd.html ]
Starts out in Am, pull off and hammer on the index finger, alternating with E
and then go to:

            Am
I thought I knew you, I was
G
in for a surprise, I let my
D
love flow from my
E
heart into your eyes, and then I


Am
found out
               G                                  D
that there was nothing I could know or guess about you
                        E
you'd go as far as you could go and it took me


F                C
Years to figure out that there was
D7             E
nothing I could give to you, and
F               C
Years to figure out that there was
D7                E
nothing you would take from me, and
F               C
How can I describe the way you
D7             E
slowly took my hope away, and
F
all of the time, I thought I
Am
knew you
