The name and the address

Of everyone I've ever known

It's nothing I regret
Dm Am
Save it for another day
Bb
It's the school exam
C G (barre chords once)
The kids have run away
riff 1 once
chorus:
riff 1 x 4
I would like a place I can call my own
Have a conversation on my telephone
Wake up everyday, that would be a start
I would not complain with my wounded heart
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/n/new_order/regret_crd.html ]
riff 2 x 4
I was upset, you see
Almost all the time
You used to be a stranger
Now you are mine
verse 2:
F
I wouldn't even trust you
Bb
I've not that much to give
F
We're dealing in the limits, and
Bb
We don't know who with
Dm Am
You may think that I'm out of hand
Bb
That I'm naive, I'll understand
C Am
On this occasion, it's not true
Bb C G (barre chord)
Look at me, I'm not you
riff 1 once
chorus same as before
bridge plays with the verse chords: F Bb F Bb Dm Am Bb C
then G
and riff 1
riff 1 x 7
I would like a place I can call my own
Have a conversation on the telephone
Wake up everyday, that would be a start
I would not complain with my wounded heart
Just wait 'till tomorrow
I guess that's what they all say
Just before they fall apart
and I think the outro is playing with the riffs 1 and 2 just that
enjoy it!
