    A                               E7b9/B 
The hardest thing I've ever done is keep believing 
        F#m                             G   A 
There's someone in this crazy world for me...
    D                                   Dm         G7 
The way that people come and go through temporary lives
   A                     F#m           Bm7   D  E 
My chance could come and I might never know...

  A                                E7b9/B   
I used to say, "No promises, let's keep it simple."
    F#m                            G   A   
But freedom only helps you say goodbye...
   D                                 G#m7b5  C#7       F#m   B7
It took a while for me to learn that nothing comes for free... 
    Bm7             E7              A 
The price I paid is high enough for me

CHORUS 1
D        E/D           C#m     F#m 
I know I need to be in love...
Bm7         E               A     G   A 
I know I've wasted too much time...
  D             C#7          F#m             B7    (pause)       
I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world...
    Bm7            E7                     A    A7   D   Do7   A 
And fool enough to think that's what I'll find...

   A                              E7b9/B
So here I am with pockets full of good intentions 
F#m                                G     A 
But none of them will comfort me tonight...
    D                           G#m7b5 C#7       F#m    B7
I'm wide awake at four a.m. without a  friend in sight...
    Bm7          E7             A      G    A
I'm hanging on a hope but I'm alright...

CHORUS 2
D        E/D           C#m     F#m 
I know I need to be in love...
Bm7         E               A      G    A 
I know I've wasted too much time...
  D             C#7          F#m             B7    (pause)
I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world...
    Bm7            E7                     A    G   A 
And fool enough to think that's what I'll find...

FINAL CHORUS
D        E/D           C#m     F#m 
I know I need to be in love...
Bm7         E               A      G    A 
I know I've wasted too much time... 
D               C#7          F#m             B7    (pause) 
I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world...
    Bm7            E7                    
And fool enough to think that's what I'll... 
A    A7   D   E/D   C#m  F#m/maj7-F#m  Bm7  E7   A
Find...
