[Intro]
G#m F# E G#m F# E
[Verse 1]
G#m F#
One phone call wiped out a year
E
Like waves swept under the pier
G#m F#
Long weeks of impending doom
E
Stuck in life’s waiting room
G#m F#
Always so close to goodbye
E
Pushed so far over the line
G#m F#
No new light under the moon
E
Stuck in life’s waiting room
[Chorus]
B C#m
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
You don’t know what you’ve got
B C#m
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
’Til it’s almost gone
G#m F#
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
You don’t know what you’ve got
G#m F#
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
’Til it’s over
[Verse 2]
G#m F#
Another day in the life
E
You can’t look me in the eye
G#m F#
There’s nothing left you could say
E
It wouldn’t help anyway
G#m F#
This poison skin you can’t touch
E
Go on without me, my love
G#m F#
No kiss to send you away
E
It wouldn’t help anyway
[Chorus]
B C#m
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
You don’t know what you’ve got
B C#m
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
’Til it’s almost gone
G#m F#
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
You don’t know what you’ve got
G#m F#
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
’Til it’s over
[Instrumental]
G#m F# E
[Bridge]
G#m E
I begged for your forgiveness
B F#/A#
I made a deal with God
G#m E
I took you all for granted
B F#
You can write my epilogue
[Chorus]
B C#m
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
You don’t know what you’ve got
B C#m
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
’Til it’s almost gone
G#m F#
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
You don’t know what you’ve got
G#m F#
You don’t know what you’ve got
E
’Til it’s over
[Outro]
B C#m E
And over, And over, And over
B C#m E
And over, And over, And over
G#m F# E
And over, And over, And over
G#m F# E
And over, And over, And over
One phone call wiped out a year
Like waves swept under the pier
Long weeks of impending doom
Stuck in life's waiting room
Always so close to goodbye
Pushed so far over the line
No new light under the moon
Stuck in life's waiting room
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got, till it's almost gone
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got, till it's over
Another day in the life
You can't look me in the eye
There's nothing left you could say
It wouldn't help anyway
This poison skin you can't touch
Go on without me, my love
No kiss to send you away
It wouldn't help anyway
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got, till it's almost gone
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got, till it's over
I begged for your forgiveness
I made a deal with God
I took you all for granted
You can write my epilogue
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got, till it's almost gone
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got, till it's over
And over, and over, and over
And over, and over, and over
And over, and over, and over
And over, and over, and over
And over, and over, and over
