This is how it was played at that Jaded in Chicago MTV thing.
I donуt know why he would play it in a different key, so if
It dosnуt sound right, sorry about that. Tune to Eb
(looks best in Courier)
This is weird, but youуll catch on

Verse 1:
 B             F#
Now I rest my head from
         E              B
Such an endless dreary time
   B                 F#
A time of hopes and happiness
      E             B
That had you on my mind
       B                 F#
Those days are gone and now it seems
    E                B
As if I'll get some rest
     B                 F#
But now and then I'll see you again
        E                B
And it puts my heart to test
Chorus:
    E               F#
So when are all my problems
          B
Going to end?

B a a e e b b 4x
I still think about you
Verse 2:
As the days go on I wonder
Will this ever end ?
I find it hard to keep control
When you're with your boyfriend
I do not mind if all I am is
Just a friend to you
But all I want to know right now
Is if you think about me too ?
