DGD It started long ago, you have to understand F#- G we thought we'd make a life, we thought we had a plan DGD we built it like a house and filled it up with kids F#- the only trouble is CG I won't be back again
DG- Cause something in my heart has taken to the wind B- E and nothing I can do will bring it back again GG- A nobody ever wins the war in the gulf between us DG- something in my heart no longer could survive B- E those battles in the day, the quiet in the night GG- DF#- I lost the will to fight the war in the gulf between us
A- GG- A
DGD And then it all began, the quarrels and the moods F#- G I tip-toed all around you; you danced around me too DGD and somewhere in between we found the time for love F#- the only trouble is CG it never was enough
DG- Cause something in my heart has taken to the wind B- E and nothing I can do will bring it back again GG- A nobody ever wins the war in the gulf between us DG- something in my heart no longer could survive B- E those battles in the day, the quiet in the night GG- DF#- I lost the will to fight the war in the gulf between us
GA What was the sense in keeping alive CG something that never made us satisfied E- A sometimes it's better to get on with your life CA7 I don't believe in hurting each other all the time
*SOLO*
DG- DG- DF#- A
DGD Now after all the lawyers have eaten our remains F#- G and after all the nights have swallowed up the pain DGD then maybe we will meet, we'll find a neutral place F#- the only trouble is CG what will we have to say?
DG- Well something in our hearts will have to try and give B- E and something in our hearts will have to learn to live GG- DF#- together and apart without another war between us
A- GG- A

As always, fell free to make this tab better. This is one of the most "pop" song written by Adrian, but I love it from the deep of my 'cause what you can find here are a very amazing words, talking about the end of his (the following rise up is "May 1, 1990" from "Here"). I wrote only the chord just because the note and solo parts are very simple to find. I hope you'll enjoy playing this with your acoustic guitar, singing with your friends dedicating to your ex girlfriend! Simple but simply beautiful. Thank you Ade.
