Barre Chords:
G Am C Bm D
e|-3-|-5-|-8--|-7-|-10-|

D|-5-|-7-|-10-|-9-|-12-|

Before playing the G in the verses, he does a hammer-on:

Then slides into Bm before playing Am:
G Bm Am

B|-3/7--5|
G|-4/7--5|
D|-5/9--7|
A|-5/9--7|

If you want to play a simple version, play the regular chords

G|-4-|
D|-4-|
A|-0-|
E|-x-|

[Intro]
G C G C
[Verse 1]
G Bm Am
We've been flirting with disaster now
C G
I don't know if we can turn this one around
G Bm Am
We used to spend our days in laughter but somehow
C G
It seems that I can only bring you down
[Chorus]
G C
I know that time is not on our side
G C
But if it's too late, no more tears to cry
Em C
And I wonder why we never decide
D C G
To say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
[Verse 2]
G Bm Am
I know that you don't like to compromise
C G
You always seem to get your way
G Bm Am
And if you'd take a little of your own advice
C G
Love, it seems you'd rather throw it all away
[Chorus]
G C
I know that time is not on our side
G C
But if it's too late, no more tears to cry
Em C
And I wonder why we never decide
D C G
To say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
[Instrumental Break]
G C (x3)
G Am G
[Verse 3]
G Bm Am
If there's one thing I don't understand
C G
It's what you thought you'd get from me
G Bm Am
When you're lonely and I'm far away
C G
I bet you'll miss my company
[Chorus]
G C
I know that time is not on our side
G C
But if it's too late, no more tears to cry
Em C
And I wonder why we never decide
D C G
To say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
