Verse 1 (0:22) it's the same as the intro :)
^^^^^^^
Am Em
Between a man and a woman
G D*
Life begins again
Am Em
Between love and confusion there lies
D D7
only pain
to make it sound even better, you can fill in a Dsus4 instead of a plain D, where I made
*. the acoustic guitar on the track does it.
do it like this:
D Dsus4
