Sorry seems to be the hardest word

Em                                   Am      Am7
  What have I got to do, to make you love me
D                   D7              G    B7
 What have I got to do, to make you care
Em                            Am         Am7
  What do I do when lightning strikes me
D              D7                   G     B7
 And I wake to find that you’re not there

Em                         Am      Am7
  What do I do to make you want me
D                   D7        G     B7
 What have I got to do, to be heard
Em                             Am   Am7
  What do I say, when it’s all over
D               D7             G    D7
 Sorry seems to be the hardest word

C         B7             G                 A7
 It’s sad,   it’s so sad,  it’s a sad, sad situation
Am7                B7              Em   B7
   And it’s geting more and more absurd
C         B7             G              A7
 It’s sad,   it’s so sad,  why can’t we talk it over
C                   D7       Am7            B7             Em
 It always seems to me, that sorry seems to be the hardest word

  What do I do when lightning strikes me
C                   D7  G                  A7
 What have I got to do, what have I got to do
