Sugar Ray is a rock band from Orange County, California. The band formed in 1992 with the name Shrinky Dinx, later changing it to Sugar Ray after the boxer Sugar Ray Leonard. They originally were a funk metal band, however later releases abandoned this genre in favour of pop rock.
Their debut album, Lemonade and Brownies, was released in 1995. It failed to produce a major hit. Their early work was strongly influenced by funk, punk, alternative rock and straight-up rhythm and blues, not a particularly fashionable combination at the time.

This is a nice, short and really sweet song, with pretty easy chord progressions. I first heard it in a concert in Melbourne(they were touring with Live), and that pretty much generated my interest in this song. It's in the 4:59 album, and it sounds pretty retro(70's-ish). From what I hear from the song, there's a rhythm & bass guitar playing together(duh), but I've arranged it so that it can be played on one guitar. Not too willing to fork out cash for the sheet music, I tabbed this on my own, since I couldn't find any tabs for this song. Oh yeah, and I wrote this using notepad, so if the text formatting is off, use notepad to open this. To be honest, I figured this song out in an hour or so, there's bound to be mistakes. Anyway,here it is :
Note: The CD track is tuned down one step.
Chords used in this song(I think these are the correct chord names):
F - 1=3=3=2=1=1 Dm - X=X=0=2=3=1/X=3=5=5=4=3 Bb - X=1=3=3=3=1/6=8=8=7=6=6 C7 - X=3=5=5=5=3/8=10=10=9=8=8 E - 0=2=2=1=0=0 F# - 2=4=4=3=2=2 Gm7 - 3=5=5=3=3=3 A - X=0=2=2=2=0/5=7=7=6=5=5
Note: you can actually use the barre chords for the Dm(noted above) to play the intro, it doesn't really make a difference, since they're the same notes.

Chorus
G#F I know we don't talk about it
G# F (Play fill 1) I know that, that's true
G#F I know we don't talk about it
G# F (Play fill 2) I'm to scared that I'm loosing you
(same as the first verses) even though she just stopped trying even though I can't stop crying even though there's always something with you even though there's always something even though there's always something with you
Chorus 2(still the same) I know we don't talk about it I know that, that's true I know we don't talk about it I'm so lonely away from you
Well that's basically it, there's a couple of other minor leads in the song (and maybe even a few missed chords here and there) but I'll leave that to you to figure it out. Any comments mail to me at '[email protected]'.
"Sometimes we look so hard for miracles, We never see how close they are, Whatever we do, God has his own plans for us. There's no point in worrying the future, For we cannot control our destiny sometimes, What's meant to be will happen. I know where you are coming from, but let us continue to seek, and if that is the way, then we will find, if we continue to knock, the doors will be opened."
